COMIC OF THE WEEK


The Stranded #1
Written by Mike CareyArt by Siddharth KottianCovers by Mark Silvestri and Greg Horn
Virgin Comics/Sci Fi

In THE STRANDED, the first Virgin/SciFi book, five ordinary people must face a terrifying question: What if your entire world — your childhood, your family, all your memories — was a lie? For The Stranded, it’s true; they’re all, secretly, from another world. And now a deadly, otherworldly force has returned to try and kill them, operating through a twisted, altered human called Janus. Their only hope: Tamree, a dark, mysterious woman sent to Earth as their protector. One by one, Tamree must awaken the buried memories of The Stranded — along with their powerful, unique psychic and physical abilities. But even if they can defeat Janus, they must also deal with a deadly threat from one of their own.

COMIC OF THE WEEK


THE TALL TALES OF VISHNU SHARMA PANCHATANTRA #1 OF 5 £2.25


By Basu & Padlekar


Some old stories never lose their bite... Something's invading the stories of our childhood, leaving death and oblivion in its wake. Now, a motley crew of animal heroes from ancient Indian fables must unite to survive. But first they must find the boy destined to save them, the chosen guardian of the Panchatantra. Thing is... he has no idea they even exist. Vishnu Sharma, would be boy-hero, is too busy playing in online tournaments to care about fighting storybook wars. But when a none-too-fictional talking lion, monkey and bull arrive at his doorstep, Vishnu must choose between protecting the tales of the Panchatantra, or silently standing by as they disappear into storybook history. With naughty boy wizards, cuddly anime-sociopaths, and a not-so-frightful King of the Jungle, this ain't your Mother Goose's story.
