Star Slammers (Malibu)

(Malibu, 1994-1995)
™ and ©1994 Walter Simonson
Originally planned as five-issue series, fifth issue was not published.

In a world of big guns and big wars, the Star Slammers are a race of men that can kill, fight, and shoot better than anyone in the galaxy. The Slammers are mercenaries, paid vast sums and considered unstoppable.

But one day the unthinkable happened. While running a strike-and-sweep operation against a “backwater galactic empire,” a Slammer named Rojas got cut off and was captured. He was the first Star Slammer ever taken alive, a real feather in the empire’s cap. As this series begins, they’ve immobilized Rojas and are carrying him back to homeworld aboard a starship filled with soldiers. In other words, Rojas’ odds are just about even.

Star Slammers first appeared in a Marvel Graphic Novel several years before this 1994 series for Bravura. Its creator, Walter Simonson, is a comics veteran famous for his work on titles ranging from Thor to Cyberforce.
