The PDF Edition

A new stranger menace, swifter and more powerful and immune to the tiny creatures that destroyed then.

Was mankind ready?

This perfect binding comic book features exceptional artwork, each panel lush and colourful and sourced from original A3 artwork.

The Martian Ephemeris begins with the familiar story of the original invasion and the catastrophic conflict that ensues.

But Martian vs. Man (and microbes) does not result in a total knockout in Shaw’s visually stunning retelling: the invaders from the red planet regroup and return, intent on revenge.

A new and stranger menace, swifter and more powerful — now immune to the tiny organisms that destroyed them. Will mankind be ready?

THE PRODUCT

With the original A3 artwork three years in the making, ‘War of the Worlds: The Martian Ephemeris’ is a full colour 44-page graphic novella with perfect binding (square spine) packed full of stunning illustration. In essence the book is a companion to a 24 page short story (in the form of an official 19th Century from the Department For Abnatural Research) regarding the socio-historical of ancient Mars, the first invasion and detailed descriptions of the events and conclusion of the second wave. I believe this to be the first short story in this format.

THE ENDORSEMENT

Whether H.G. Wells’ masterpiece is alien to you or you have a black belt in Martian Arts, this is a beautiful little book of sci-fi art you’ll not want to put down.
