Threshold

In 2013, DC launched Threshold, an eight-issue series that served as a cosmic staging ground for the publisher's far-flung outer-space characters. Written primarily by Keith Giffen with a rotating art team of Tom Raney, Phil Winslade, and Matt Raney, the series wove together the adventures of characters like the alien warrior Stealth, the telepathic Ember, and the hard-boiled detective Star Hawkins. It also introduced the intergalactic bounty hunter Pamiera Syn and the villainous Captain K'rot, all while exploring the gritty, lawless edges of the DC universe. For fans of offbeat space opera, Threshold is a concise, creator-driven snapshot of Giffen's knack for blending humor and high-concept sci-fi.
