A distant human colony discover that they aren’t as alone as they first thought...

As the dead begin to rise as horrific monsters, can P-SEC Sgt. Abraham Neumann contain the threat? What role does the mysterious Church of Unitology have in all of this? And can any of them make it out alive...?
Antony Johnston is a British author and comic book writer. A frequent collaborator with Alan Moore, he has adapted numerous Moore prose works into graphic novels (including THE COURTYARD, ANOTHER SUBURBAN ROMANCE, and HYPOTHETICAL LIZARD, among others) and expanded upon ideas originally conceived by Moore with the horror series YUGGOTH CREATURES and NIGHTJAR.  Johnston is also the creator of the apocalyptic comic book series WASTELAND and has written DAREDEVIL for Marvel Comics.
"Writer Antony Johnston fashions a tense, thought-provoking story laced with bucketfuls of gore. Artist Ben Templesmith’s style – scratchy and chaotic with an almost unfinished feel, the direct antithesis to the hyper-realistic style of many of his peers – has never been my favorite, but it absolutely works here, adding to the hectic pace of the story. Dead Space is a totally engaging off-world adventure, and an excellent introduction to the series as a whole." – FearNet

“I would highly recommend that any Dead Space or comic book fan pick up a copy.” – Examnier
