Beyond The Beyond #1

(W) Christian Tropeano (A) Gian Fernando Full Color, 32 pages   In this first issue we meet Nova Vega, the teenage idealist who resides on a mining colony run by the oppressive Omni corporation. Nova is disenchanted by her prospects of entering the Omni Mining Academy, for she’d much rather be out exploring the stars like her parents before her. We are also introduced to Sirius Vega, Nova’s older brother and guardian, who picks her up after she’s thrown out of class for insubordination. When an argument between the siblings goes too far, Nova enacts her long awaited plan to escape the mining colony and explore the alien world from where her parents never returned.
