The second volume of Elaine Lee and Michael Kaluta's classic science fiction epic narrative continues with all digitally remastered art and brand new colors, more than half of which is collected here for the very first time! What does a guy do when his droid goes missing And not just any droid, an extremely rare pleasure droid that's a dead ringer for his long-lost love! As bartender Harry Palmer--ex-rebel, ex-mercenary "proldier"--combs Rec 97, a perilous, planet-sized, vacation station, following clues and fending off enemies, he must also delve into his own past to do battle with his personal demons. Will Annie's abductor be an old pal, a hidden foe, or two inebriated fem-fighters that frequent his bar
Elaine Lee has had incarnations as an EMMY-nominated actress and playwright, artistic director of a theatre company (Wild Hair Productions), comic book writer and color artist, animation writer and story editor, video game writer, and art director for a music company. Specializing in sci-fi, fantasy and horror, Elaine has created six original comic series (includingBrainBanx, Skin Tight Orbit, andThe Transmutation of Ike Garuda). She is best known as writer/creator of Vamps. She has written animation scripts for Niolan, A-Film, and Stardust Entertainment/Hallmark Entertainment. Michael Kaluta's early professional art appeared in pulp magazines, and his earliest comic book work appeared in various Charlton Comics. DC Comics was Kaluta's main focus of the 1970s; drawing interiors and, eventually, covers for their House of Mystery and House of Secrets comic books. Covers for both Detective Comics and Batman were the next step, and, eventually, the nod to draw DC Comics' 1970s versions of Edgar Rice Burroughs' Carson of Venus and pulp icon The Shadow. The new century saw a Madame Xanadu five-issue comic book story arc, and Chaos King, a special 30-page stand-alone book in Marvel's Chaos War.
