Synopsis

From the twisted and endlessly innovative mind of fan favourite writer Warren Ellis (The Authority, Transmetropolitan) comes an all-new foray into other worlds, altered realities and warped planes of existence, courtesy of Elijah Snow, Jakita Wagner and The Drummer: Planetary! Their charter is vague, their existence a secret buried under riddles and conspiracles, their sponsor an utter mystery (even to them), and their mission as diverse, complex and chimerical as the universe itself. Who better then to investigate theoretical snowflakes containing entire realities, lost islands where monsters thrive, ghost police detectives and 100-year old superheroes?
