Chris Mould's War of the Worlds

內容簡介

內容簡介 1894年，在遙遠的太空之中，有雙充滿嫉妒的眼睛正默默注視著地球，密謀發動一場襲擊。一顆看似是隕石的物體墜落地表，但從殘骸中出現的卻是令人驚駭的外星生命……一位名叫 Leon 的年輕人記錄下了他的目擊經過與素描。「從未見過外星生命的人難以想像那份恐懼。」他寫道：「即使只是第一次瞥見，我便被恐懼與絕望壓倒。我們幾乎無法動彈，彷彿整個世界都靜止了……」在這部全彩圖像小說的經典改編作品中，Chris Mould 以筆觸生動描繪出外星人登陸的場面——牠們最初在林間與城市中顯得笨拙不堪，卻在發動攻擊時展現出驚人的效率與毀滅力。隨著戰爭爆發，Leon 與身為科學家的妻子展開一場與時間競賽，試圖解開外星人背後的科學祕密，為這場橫掃世界的戰爭尋找終結之道。In 1894, across space, this earth was being watched by envious eyes, and plans were being drawn up for an attack.What seems to be a meteorite falls to earth, but from the debris, unfolds terrifying alien life…A young man called Leon records his observations and sketches. ‘Those who have never seen Martian life can scarcely imagine the horror’ – he tells us. ‘Even at this first glimpse, I was overcome with fear and dread. The earth stood still as we watched, almost unable to move …’In a full colour, graphic novel retelling of the classic, Chris Mould depicts the arrival of these giant martians that tower over woods and cities, seemingly ungainly at first, but then horrifyingly efficient when they begin to attack…As war descends, Leon and his scientist wife race against the clock to discover the science behind these martians in the hopes of ending this war of all worlds.
