Synopsis

In the far future, the planet of Sera is a utopian society — until the Locust, an insectoid race of aliens bent on destroying the humans above — rise up from tunnels deep within the planet’s core, and only humans able to fight back are known as the “Gears”!

Now, join hero Gears Marcus Fenix, Dom Santiago, Augustus Cole, Damon Baird and newly-minted, first-tour warrior “Jace” as they fight wretches, boomers, corpsers, brumaks and worse in a running battle to return to the safety of the Jacinto plateau, in the aftermath of the deployment of the Lightmass Bomb!

With pitch-perfect scripting by Joshua Ortega (Batman) and featuring astonishing artwork by Liam Sharp (Spawn) this is an action-packed must for Gears of War fans!
