Five comics stories set in James Cameron's expansive world that take place before, during, and after the 2009 multiple Academy Award-winning film Avatar.

In Tsu'tey's Path experience these events--events of the first Avatar movie--from the perspective of Na'vi Omatikaya warrior Tsu'tey Then, in the short story "Brothers," Jake connects with the flying Toruk by remembering the depth of his bond with his twin brother and great partnerships of history and legend. In The Next Shadow, set immediately after the events of Avatar, Jake navigates his position as both leader of the Omatikaya and former Marine as tensions ramp up between the Na'vi and the humans who remain on Pandora. Meanwhile, in Frontiers of Pandora: So'lek's Journey, young Na'vi warrior, So'lek, finds himself one of the last survivors of his clan after the Battle of the Hallelujah Mountains. He searches for his place on Pandora and struggles with waking nightmares of war. This is the origin story of So'lek, a key character in Ubisoft's AA PC/console video game. Finally, set years before the events of Avatar, in Adapt or Die, Dr. Grace Augustine wants to build a bridge between the occupying humans and the Na'vi, but her plans hit a wall as a mysterious illness among Na'vi and avatars is blamed on the humans.

A boundary-pushing science fiction epic, perfect for fans of We Only Find Them When They’re Dead, 2001: A Space Odyssey, and Tom King and Elsa Charretier’s Love Everlasting. On board the interplanetary ark Dodona, life is strictly regimented and controlled, functioning according to the edicts put in place hundreds of years ago. But when a pilot named Revla falls through the vents and out of her privileged life landing deep within the belly of the ship’s inner workings, she meets an algae tank worker named Les, and everything about their society is called into question. In this multi-generational science fiction epic, each chapter tells a new story of love and rebellion at a pivotal moment in the history of humanity’s greatest adventure. Across the centuries, different factions rise and fall, political movements gain and lose power, and society changes both for the better and the worse, all within the microcosm of the spaceship Dodona. The only constants: hope for the future and the persistence of the human heart.

Since the 1970s, the Planet of the Apes franchise has frequently delved into the world of comic books. Some stories have made the Lawgiver proud, while others have brought shame to Ape City. In the comics arena, not all apes are created equal - but for fans, that's half the fun of reading them. More than 150 POTA comics have been published during the past four decades, from Gold Key, Marvel Comics, Power Records, Brown Watson Books, Editorial Mo. Pa. Sa., Malibu Graphics, Dark Horse, Mr. Comics, and BOOM Studios. Writers have explored the settings, concepts and characters from the films (and occasionally the TV series), while introducing an array of new characters and scenarios. Back stories have been revealed, plot holes filled in and histories extrapolated upon. The comics have employed multiple genres and styles, taking readers to distant villages, ruined cities and oceanic civilizations - and have even seen the apes battle alien invaders from War of the Worlds and Alien Nation. It's been quite the madhouse, to be sure. But by and large, the Apes comics have remained true to novelist Pierre Boulle's simian spirit. Sacred Scrolls: Comics on the Planet of the Apes will examine the entire history of POTA comic books, from Gold Key to BOOM and everything in between. This anthology will feature insightful, analytical essays about the franchise's four-color continuation, from popular comic historians, novelists, bloggers and subject-matter experts. If you're eager to learn more about Apes lore, then you'll need to get your stinkin' paws on this volume.
