With writer Mariko Tamaki and artist Amancay Nahuelpan crafting a wild, offbeat journey through bizarre denizens and surreal locales, the chase leads her to a destination that’s as unexpected as it is legendary: the planet they call Space Vegas. The cover by Sweeney Boo captures the chaos and flair of the quest, perfectly framing the tone of this high-stakes, offbeat adventure.

Given 50 Earth-hours by the Space-Penitentiary administrator to return Lobo to prison - or an attached device will blow her to atoms, Crush follows a trail of space-floating, discarded cigar butts (as if they were breadcrumbs), figuring they will lead her to her quarry. The trail takes her to - and through - a myriad of odd people, creatures, and places ultimately leading to a next-issue showdown on "...the planet they call Space Vegas."
