Orbiter

From white-hot author Warren Ellis (Planetary, Transmetropolitan) and acclaimed artist Colleen Doran (Sandman, A Distant Soil) comes an all-new graphic novel The Space Shuttle Venture disappeared from Earth's orbit ten years ago, taking a crew of seven with it. This final NASA disaster committed the Earth to programmes of robotic discovery flight only - no human has been in space for a decade. However the Venture has come back to Earth ten years late. Its remaining crewman - an insane pilot - and instrumentation that wasn't on the shuttle when it lifted off. This is the story of what happened to the Venture's crew, where the shuttle went... and what it means for an Earth that's given up hope of walking amongst the stars.
