About the series
A quiet, contemplative companion to J. Michael Straczynski's acclaimed Rising Stars saga, this single-issue Image Comics one-shot from 2002 explores the aftermath of the Specials' emergence through a series of intimate, character-driven vignettes. Rather than advancing the main plot, it offers a mosaic of perspectives from ordinary people touched by the super-powered events—a poignant look at the human cost and wonder of the story's world. Written by Straczynski himself, it's a brief but essential coda for readers who wanted to linger in the universe a little longer.
