Book Description
The classic space hero from the 1950s returns in an all-new, four-issue limited series. Long before Kirk, Spock and those other guys were sent to school, Tom Corbett, Roger Manning and Astro were attending Space Academy, in a TV series that sparked novels, comic strips and a wide variety of merchandise. Tom is the charismatic leader of the team; Roger is sharp-tongued navigator and Astro controls engineering. In this issue, the cadets have their first encounter with a dangerous new enemy with a surprising origin. Writer by Bill Spangler, author of such science fiction comics as Alien Nation: The Spartans and Robotech: The Malcontent Uprisings, returns to these fan favorites, with dynamic art by John DaCosta.

Book Description
This is the seminal novel of a young man's education as a member of an elite, paternalistic non-military organization of leaders dedicated to preserving human civilization, the Solar Patrol, a provocative parallel to Heinlein's famous later novel, Starship Troopers (which is about the military). Only the best and brightest--the strongest and the most courageous--ever manage to become Space Cadets, at the Space Academy. They are in training to be come part of the elite guard of the solar system, accepting missions others fear, taking risks no others dare, and upholding the peace of the solar system for the benefit of all. But before Matt Dodson can earn his rightful place in the ranks, his mettle is to be tested in the most severe and extraordinary ways--ways that change him forever, from the midwestern American boy into a man of the Solar Patrol. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Book Description
The classic space hero from the 1950’s is back, with a new look but the same sense of high-spirited adventure. Tom Corbett, Roger Manning, and Astro were attending Space Academy, in a TV series that sparked novels, comic strips, and merchandise. Now for the first time the "Danger in Deep Space" mini series is combined into this trade paperback! If you can dream it, you can do it. That's Tom's motto, sometimes, when he's not being lazy that is. Tom Corbett is a real space cadet, out to lunch and completely unswayed by the needs of his crew. Well, it's not really his crew, but he'll do whatever it takes to change that.

Book Description
With his critically acclaimed military science fiction debut series, Dave Bara launched readers on a star-spanning journey of discovery, diplomacy, and danger. Lieutenant Peter Cochrane of the Quantar Royal Navy believes he has his future clearly mapped out. It begins with his new assignment as an officer on Her Majesty’s Spaceship Starbound, a Lightship bound for deep space voyages of exploration. But everything changes when Peter is summoned to the office of his father, Grand Admiral Nathan Cochrane, and given devastating news: the death of a loved one. In a distant solar system, a mysterious and unprovoked attack upon Lightship Impulse resulted in the deaths of Peter’s former girlfriend and many of her shipmates. Now Peter's plans are torn asunder as he is transferred to a Unified Space Navy ship under foreign command, en route to an unexpected destination, and surrounded almost entirely by strangers. To top it off, his superiors have given him secret orders that might force him to become a mutineer. The crisis at hand becomes a gateway to something much more when the ship’s Historian leads Peter and his shipmates into a galaxy of the unknown -- of ancient technologies, age-old rivalries, new cultures, and unexpected romance. It’s an overwhelming responsibility for Peter, and one false step could plunge humanity into an apocalyptic interstellar war….
