From best-selling author Warren Ellis (Planetary, Transmetropolitan) and acclaimed artist Colleen Doran (Sandman, A Distant Soil) comes an all-new SF graphic novel Ten years ago, the Space Shuttle Venture disappeared from Earth's orbit, taking a crew of seven with it. Now it has returned with 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. From an extraordinary creative team, Orbiter is a mesmerising story of first contact and its inevitable consequences, and is destined to be a classic
