Exactly the sort of interactive fun that’ll have kids exploring the world, right beside their own imagination.” - DUNCAN ROULEAU (Creator of Ben 10 and Big Hero Six) “What an awesome leap forward for children’s books! A wonderful blend of reading, adventure, and real interactive-story-telling that totally takes everything to the next level of FUN!” - KEVIN EASTMAN ILLUSTRATED CHILDREN’S BOOK (Co-Creator of the FULL COLOR: 32pp Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) In a post-Earth future, humanity is strewn across the galaxy, living in city-sized orbital platforms or on distant colony worlds. All aspects of society—economic, military, judicial, media —are controlled by a single entity: the Conglomerate. Wealth is the only measure of status and power, and the vast majority of it is held by a select few shareholders while the common citizens of the Conglomerate have never known any other way of life. Samantha, the daughter of a powerful Conglomerate executive, wants to change that. Accompanied by a fellow diplomat, a dishonorably discharged soldier and her lifelong android servant, a mission of hope spirals into one of survival. Stranded on an alien planet with no equipment and no hope of escape, they must survive a civil war between alien races and creatures with magical powers. This is scifi-fantasy on a truly massive scale. “The kind of book you’d want on a desert island… cinematic, widescreen pages of a sci- fi universe akin to something out of the Star Wars or Mass Effect franchises.” -USA TODAY “Loaded with offbeat characters and idiosyncratic socio-structures, Anomaly does a smashing job of bringing us back to the fundamentals of humanity.” - RIDLEY SCOTT (The Martian, Alien, Blade Runner, Gladiator) OVERSIZED GRAPHIC NOVEL (Landscape, 16.5” x 11.5”) FULL COLOR: 370pp The longest original full color graphic novel ever published!

They will take their stand at a place called the Rubicon, a planet-wide display of power, wealth and military might. A showy and decadent high- tech carnival where the latest killing machines are paraded before the public as the ultimate show of strength for a government that believes itself to be invulnerable. Joined by a number of unlikely allies, they will strike a blow for freedom or die trying.

ANOMALY: THE RUBICON is no exception...” - ANDREW STANTON (Writer: Toy Story, Monsters, Inc., Finding Nemo, WALL-E) “It was worth every split second of the 95 years, some months, weeks and days it took me to find...ANOMALY: THE RUBICON.
