If you're in the mood for some of that futuristic, George Jetson, outer space superhero stuff in the tradition of Annihilation or Legion of Superheroes, you should get your mitts on a free copy of Abnett and Lanning's The Hypernaturals this weekend. Here's a preview...
The Sales Pitch:
This Free Comic Book Day... A universe trembles.
It is the far future; the human race has finally colonized the galaxy, preserving an era of prosperity that's only possible because of The Hypernaturals. They're a celebrated, galaxy-wide superhero task force that keeps the peace. That is, until they all mysteriously vanish. Now, as the galaxy teeters on the brink of chaos, it's up to a group of retired and long forgotten Hypernaturals - and their novice recruits - to save the galaxy from complete destruction.
Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning, the superstar writing duo behind Annihilation and The Legion, launch an all-new original series that takes cosmic super-heroes to a new frontier. Experience the special preview issue of The Hypernaturals this May and pick up the #1 issue this July!
This looks like the start of something fresh. Cop this one for self or a friend free. For newbs, there will be tons of free comics available at participating shops, cause Saturday May 5 is FREE COMIC BOOK DAY (that's what all those #FCBD hashtags on the social networks mean).
