The Starr Conspiracy (Hardcover)

An aspiring young journalist ends up an unwitting chess piece in a strange mystery involving a murder, missing data, and the identity of the space-pirate Captain Drake. When Leo's friend is murdered in a plot to destroy data concerning Captain Drake, he must run for his life as he realises the missing data is still in his possession. Along the way, he faces angry alien pets, starship chases, a love-hungry villain, and an army of pirates as he stumbles across the answers to the mystery. Written and illustrated by The Metabarons artist Juan Gimenez, this satirical and humorous ride through the future (and the past!) delivers the graphic style and virtuosity you would expect from this master of the form.
