Another Dawn

Graphic Novel

"Simply one of the most fascinating and magnificently bizarre strips to come out of 2000AD for many, many years. Superbly strange sci-fi that takes you to the weird and wonderful places that all great sci-fi should. Another one for my best-of-year list. 10/10"
-- Richard Bruton, Comicon.com

"A rollercoaster thrill ride with a perfect mix of action and political mystery. As the immense galaxy-spanning mystery slowly unfolds the lines between who's good and evil get a little foggy, which all helps makes this such a great read."
-- Rob Lake, Geek Culture Reviews

"If you're looking for a killer science fiction story that plays with the conventions of the genre, and is clearly having a lot of fun doing it, you'll love Proteus Vex."
-- Andy Kelly, The Gamer

"A potent blend of espionage and space opera. It's like James Bond got involved in Star Wars but then went rogue after exposing Rebel Alliance war crimes committed at the end of the war, all rendered with beautiful, slightly surrealist art."
-- Jamie Lovett, Comicbook.com

"Carroll has been a consistently imaginative writer on Judge Dredd since 2011, and here provides a more complex form of science fiction against an equally well conceived backdrop"
-- Karl Verhoven, Slings & Arrows

 

Another galaxy - a different type of hero!

After fourteen centuries, the war was brought to a definitive, horrific end when the alliance teleported a dying white dwarf star into the heart of the Obdurate system.

It was a brutal, unthinkable act that shocked the galaxy -- but although billons of Obdurate citizens were killed, many people argued that it saved countless other lives.

Now, in the post-war era, Imperium Agent Proteus Vex has been dispatched to track down a missing superior officer. It is a mission that will take Vex into the darkest territories imaginable -- and uncover secrets that could forever shatter the galaxy's fragile peace.

Hit comics team Michael Carroll (The New Heroes, Dreadnoughts, Judge Dredd), Henry Flint (Judge Dredd, Zombo) and Jake Lynch (Judge Dredd) bring you a mind-expanding, colourful story that will plunge you into a series of strange new worlds.

 

This volume collects the first two Proteus Vex adventures: "Another Dawn" (2000AD #2162-2169 & #2171) and "The Shadow Chancellor" (2000AD #2212-2219 & #2221-2223)
