From the critically acclaimed writer Jeff Parker (Batman '66, James Bond) and artist Sandy Jarrell (Reggie and Me), Meteor Men is a masterful blend of sci-fi wonder and grounded human drama. Originally published by Oni Press, this graphic novel offers a unique, character-driven take on the classic "first contact" story, moving away from tropes of global war to focus on the intimate connection between a lonely boy and a visitor from the stars.

This copy is Brand New, making it an excellent choice for fans of E.T., Arrival, or readers who appreciate "Quiet Sci-Fi" with a strong emotional core.

A First Contact Story Unlike Any Other

On a summer night in the small town of Liberty, a meteor shower brings more than just lights in the sky. For Alden Baylor, it brings an encounter that will change the course of human history.

• Intimate Perspective: Rather than focusing on military bunkers or world leaders, Jeff Parker keeps the story centered on Alden, exploring how the arrival of an alien species affects a regular teenager and his community.

• Clean, Expressive Art: Sandy Jarrell’s clear-line style is perfect for this narrative, capturing the sprawling, open landscapes of the American Midwest and the subtle emotional shifts in its characters.

• Thought-Provoking Themes: The book delves into themes of communication, isolation, and what it truly means to be "human" when faced with the vastness of the universe.
