Wild Stars: The Book of Circles - Recalibrated (Paperback)

75,000 years ago, mankind made their first migration into space and colonized planets circling the brightest stars in the night sky. Every story of UFOs, Space Gods or Aliens are the result of visits from our distant cousins. Now they've become embroiled in a galactic war with the genocidal Brothan, who will either rewrite Earth's history so that fascism rules the world, or annihilate the planet by igniting Jupiter into a second sun. Wild Stars is a complicated and fast-paced multi-genre tale, combining backwoods dirty dealings with space opera on a galactic scale. Wild Stars: The Book of Circles - Recalibrated is the first trade paperback reprint of the 25th Anniversary hardcover graphic novel that collected all the Wild Stars comics published between 1984 and 2002, along with new material. Reviewers have raved about the artwork; "Real Treasure," "Absolutely beautiful stuff," and the story; ..". filled to bursting with subplots and hidden storylines ..." ..". the damned thing just wouldn't leave my hands until I got to the end." ..". an elegantly simple ending, leaving the reader feeling much like a stupefied Watson at the end of a Sherlock Holmes adventure." Created and written by Michael Tierney, with artwork by comics industry icon Frank Brunner, Dave Simons, David Brewer and Michael Tierney, this is the first paperback edition of the 2009 hardcover, in uniform packaging with the new sequel, Wild Stars: Force Majeure, being simultaneously released in celebration of the Wild Stars 30th Anniversary.
