SYNOPSIS
Duncan, Roxy, Cynthia and Rasheed just want to have a little intergalactic fun. But what starts out as a harmless day of extreme planet jumping turns into a mind-blowing, white-knuckle race for their lives to get back home. Only problem is, home is no longer where they left it. And the alien race, hell-bent on destroying them, isn’t getting any friendlier.
"30 Days of Night’s" author, Steve Niles, collaborates with illustrators Dr. Revolt, Gary Panter, Kime Buzzelli, and Morning Breath to bring you a graphic novel that will challenge what you think about time and space travel. Free printed copies are available at Giant Robot, Hennessy + Ingalls, MoMA, SFMOMA, MOCA and other select stores and galleries nationwide in July, while supplies last.

"The Lost Ones” is the first Zune Arts project that began with a writer, Steve Niles, at the center. And by teaming him up with four radically different artists to bring the graphic novel to life visually, it’s become a fun experiment in artistic collaboration. How could alien space cowboys not be fun?"
