About The Book
WASTED SPACE is an out-of-this-world cocktail that’s one part Preacher, one part Star Wars, and a delectable dose of Philip K. Dick shaken well … take a sip and get wasted.
THE GALAXY IS WRECKED—A COCKTAIL OF WARLORDS, PIRATES, AND TINPOT DICTATORS, STIRRED TO A FRENZY BY AN ALCOHOLIC FORMER PROPHET. TAKE A SIP AND GET WASTED.
For Billy Bane, Molly, Dust, and the outcasts and misfits they meet along the way, the path to galactic (and personal) peace isn't getting any easier. They have their mission, delivered by the strange, towering deity known as Legion: They must kill the Creator, which is no easy feat. But it might be the only way to set the galaxy free, or it might just mean total annihilation. Packed with high-stakes action, existential angst, and biting humor, WASTED SPACE has been hailed as one of the best comics of 2018 by countless publications. It's a unique, fresh take on the classic pulp space adventure—"like Star Wars by way of 2018" (Batman's Bookcase); "nihilistic and twisted" (Nerdist).
From Michael Moreci (Barbaric, The Plot, Spree, and Revealer - based on the Shudder original movie - all from Vault Comics; Black Star Renegades) and Hayden Sherman (The Few, Cold War, John Carter: The End).
