The Lost by Dan Abnett
Everything--their families, their friends and teammates, their very galaxy--gone in a blinding flash of light. Upon preventing a cataclysmic rift in their universe, several members of the 30th century's famed champions, the Legion of Super-Heroes, find themselves stranded an inconceivable distance from home, with no devisable method of safe return. Before they can even attempt to return to their galaxy, however, the Legionnaires must first endure the unknowns of a hostile galaxy plagued by the alien Progeny, whose godlike creator deems diverse species impure variants subject to eugenic deletion. It is these encounters, and their own questionable solutions, that will soon have the heroes wondering if the very purpose of the Legion--powerful individuals from across the cosmos, bound together by a common dream of galactic harmony--has also been lost. Joined by superstar artist Olivier Coipel (The Mighty Thor), who made his comics debut on the series, Abnett and Lanning strand the future's greatest heroes in an unknown galaxy beset with mysterious cosmic threats for epic sci-fi storytelling at its finest. Collects all 12 issues of the critically praised maxi-series Legion Lost
Dan Abnett lives and works in Maidstone, Kent. After graduating from Oxford, he worked for a while as an editor of comics and children's books before turning to writing full time. In the dozen or so years since then, he has written for such a diverse range of characters - including Scooby Doo, Thunderbirds, Conan the Barbarian, the X-Men, Johnny Bravo, BATMAN, Rupert the Bear, Dr Who, Mr Men, The Terminator and Postman Pat - that he is now clinically bewildered. He created the popular series Sinister Dexter, which he continues to write, along with other strips, for 2000 AD, and has recently helped rejuvenate the LEGION OF SUPERHEROES for DC Comics. His work for the Black Library, particularly the best-selling Gaunt's Ghosts and Inquisitor Eisenhorn novels, is often cited as damning evidence of just who it was that let the galaxy burn. Andy Lanning is a British comic book writer and inker. He has co-written (with Dan Abnett) such titles as THE LEGION, Forceworks, RESURRECTION MAN, and several space-themed comics for Marvel. His smooth inking style has been in much demand, and has been seen on various titles including WONDER WOMAN, Avengers, OTHERWORLD, THE LEGION, and Star Trek: Starfleet Academy.
