☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Arriving on Poloda," Tangor takes the first test flight of a desperate escape vessel built by the fish-people of a dying ocean, fleeing the escalating war between Unis and Kapar. After being ambushed by Kapar airships and forced off course, he crash-lands on a mysterious new world where he finds himself able to walk—something he never thought possible. Written by Marv Wolfman and illustrated with bold, dynamic precision by Howard Chaykin, this issue blends high-stakes adventure with the quiet wonder of discovery, while Roy G. Krenkel’s striking cover captures the moment of arrival in haunting detail.
In "Arriving on Poloda," RAF pilot Lieutenant Farnsworth wakes to a world beyond his own after a V-2 rocket sends him tumbling through space and time. Stranded on the alien planet Poloda, he’s captured by the Unis and branded a spy from the hostile nation of Kapar—then forced to flee in a stolen airship, racing toward an uncertain sky.
In the vast unknowns beyond the farthest star, Farnsworth awakens on a strange world, drawn to a towering statue that seems to hold secrets of a forgotten people. After being captured and brought to the enigmatic society of Poloda, he learns their language and is given a new name—Tangor—before facing a sudden threat from Kaparian airships.
Tangor’s airship sputters out over the open sea, forcing a desperate plunge into the depths—where he’s saved by fish-people who grant him gills to survive. When a one-eyed, tentacled predator emerges from the dark, Tangor must fight to protect his unlikely allies in the crushing blue.
In "Test Flight," Jo and the fish-people of a dying ocean enlist Tangor to pilot their new ship on a critical test run to a distant aquatic world. When their vessel is ambushed by Kapar airships mid-flight, Tangor must navigate a damaged craft through uncharted skies—leading to a crash landing on an alien planet where he finally steps onto solid ground, alone.
