Planetary has been hailed as a timeless story that turned modern
superhero conventions on their heads.Written by Warren Ellis
(Transmetropolitan) and with stunning art by John Cassaday
(Astonishing X-Men), this critically acclaimed, landmark series took a
look at the inter-dimensional peace-keeping force known as Planetary.
The trio on the ground includes Elijah Snow, a hundred-year-old man,
Jakita Wagner, an extremely powerful woman, and The Drummer, a man with
the ability to communicate with machines. Tasked with tracking down
evidence of super-human activity, these mystery archaeologists uncover
unknown paranormal secrets and histories, such as a World War II
supercomputer that can access other universes, a ghostly spirit of
vengeance, and a lost island of dying monsters.
All 27 issues of the original series are collected in this hardbound
omnibus edition.
