A stunning graphic novel retelling of the science fiction classic. In 1894, across space, this earth was being watched by envious eyes, and plans were being drawn up for an attack.
What seems to be a meteorite falls to earth, but from the debris, unfolds terrifying alien life. A young man called Leon records his observations and sketches. "Those who have never seen Martian life can scarcely imagine the horror," he tells us. "Even at this first glimpse, I was overcome with fear and dread. The earth stood still as we watched, almost unable to move..."
As war descends, Leon and his scientist wife race against the clock to discover the science behind these martians in the hopes of ending this war of all worlds.
