About this Collection

This volume collects the conclusion of the 2001 Stormwatch series, wrapping up storylines involving the team's final mission in space. Written by Micah Ian Wright and illustrated by Whilce Portacio, it features the team facing off against a cosmic threat in the 'Final Orbit' arc, bringing the series to a close.

In "No Reason," Warren Ellis and Chris Sprouse deliver a tense, high-stakes descent into chaos as the Xenomorphs breach Skywatch, turning the high-tech fortress into a killing ground. With the Wildcats racing to save survivors and Stormwatch’s elite team pushed to the brink, Winter makes a desperate, final choice to end the threat—piloting Skywatch into the sun. Bryan Hitch’s cover captures the moment’s dread, while Kevin Nowlan’s inks and Laura DePuy’s colors heighten the grim urgency of a mission that leaves no room for retreat.
