Hailed as a genre-defying masterpiece, \u003cem\u003ePlanetary\u003c\/em\u003e follows a trio of “mystery archaeologists” tasked with uncovering the secret history of the world. Led by the enigmatic Elijah Snow, the team investigates paranormal phenomena, alternate realities, and buried conspiracies — from WWII supercomputers to ghostly spirits of vengeance and lost islands of kaiju. With stunning visuals and razor-sharp writing, this softcover omnibus is a must-have for fans of intelligent, boundary-pushing comics.\n\n\u003cem\u003eWarren Ellis' \u003c\/em\u003ePlanetary \u003cem\u003ewas a must-read series for me (and a huge chunk of fandom) when it was originally published from 1999 to 2009. Ellis, along with artists John Cassaday and Phil Jimenez, turned genres on their ears, creating \u003c\/em\u003eX-Files\u003cem\u003e-style takes on Pulp characters like Doc Savage, The Shadow, and Fu Manchu, Godzilla, Tarzan, Hong Kong action movies, DC heroes, a League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and a twisted version of the Fantastic Four. And they were able to tie it all up with a bow and conclude the series satisfactorily! I highly recommend this series!\u003c\/em\u003e ~Marty\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DC Comics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59643978481950,"sku":"PLANCO","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0999\/0684\/7006\/files\/planco-planetary-compendium-ellis-cassaday.jpg?v=1784524675","url":"https:\/\/shop.budsartbooks.com\/products\/planetary-compendium","provider":"Bud's Art Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
