SPACE GHOST JONNY QUEST SPACE QUEST

LOST IN SPACE — AND TIME! The Quest Family is legendary for how far they’ll go in the spirit of exploration and discovery — but their latest mission is literally out of this world! Jonny and the gang are brought in to investigate a mysterious, potentially extraterrestrial spacecraft that has been found by the government and brought to Area 51. Of course, where there’s spaceships, there’s bound to be aliens, right? But what Team Quest finds in this particular UFO is a far cry from the usual little gray men — and it’s under the jurisdiction of a (literally) higher power: Space Ghost! So what happens when the Defender of the Spaceways and the world’s most famous boy adventurer cross paths? The greatest entertainment event of the 21st century, that’s what! Collecting all four issues of the history-making miniseries from writer JOE CASEY and artist SEBASTIÁN PÍRIZ, Space Ghost/Jonny Quest: Space Quest also includes a complete cover gallery featuring work from some of the finest artists in the solar system!
