*** Beware \u2013 spoilers may be found below ***<\/p>\n

A mysterious white orb appears on the shore of a remote Latin American village. \u00a0This has happened before, but the orbs always disappear before anyone can figure out what they are or where they come from.<\/p>\n

When word gets out about this new orb many of the town folk come to see it. \u00a0They include Bundo (a drunk with a tragic past), Anton (a fisherman having an affair with) Tito (a local hottie who is married to the oblivious) business man Nicholas, the Sheriff and a young scientist new to the town.<\/p>\n

The orb disappears and later reappears in a cave being explored by three small children. \u00a0When the children approach the orb it explodes, leaving the children blind. Not long after a beautiful young woman (alien?) appears in town. \u00a0You know the CIA can’t be far behind — and they’re not.<\/p>\n

This issue is beautifully drawn and well written. \u00a0It reminds me of an episode of The Twilight Zone which is high praise, indeed. \u00a0I look forward to issue two.<\/p>\n
