TANKERS VS ANCIENT ALIENS # 3 (OF 4) CVR A FREDERICA MANCIN (Release Date: 08/19/2026)

New York Times best-selling writer Robert Venditti (SUPERMAN ‘78) joins forces with Eisner Award-winning artist David Lapham (STRAY BULLETS) and industry powerhouse Jonathan Marks Barravecchia (BEAR VIKING PIRATE QUEEN) to unleash grisly carnage in the penultimate issue of this bone-crushing blockbuster that will change the face of science-fiction comics forever. BORN TO A DEAD PLANET! Forged in the unforgiving icy wastes of a barren eyeball planet, two rival intelligent species duel for control of their harsh domain. Battle-hardened in the celestial crucible of galaxy-spanning civil war, a new dominant species emerges – a hyper-intelligent alien race that takes to the stars in the hopes of finding new worlds to colonize in the far-flung black. But out in the farthest reaches of space they meet an existential threat, an enemy with the power to consume all life as we know it. Facing down utter annihilation against a universal apex predator, a convoy of alien soldiers ship out across the galaxy to prepare for the coming onslaught, sending a scouting party armed to the teeth hurtling towards Earth…and straight to the Tankers.
