The groundbreaking series about a group of people who are born with special abilities after a mysterious light appears in the sky by acclaimed writer J. Michael Straczynski (Babylon 5, Amazing Spider-Man, Thor) spawned three spin-off mini-series and has influenced successful TV shows like The 4400 and Heroes. This collection includes all 24 issues of J. Michael Straczynski's run on Rising Stars, as well as all three spin-off mini-series written by his protege, Fiona Avery.
- About The Author
- David Finch is a Canadian-born comic book artist who got his start working for Top Cow Productions. After a lengthy stint on Cyberforce following series creator and studio founder Marc Silvestri, Finch went on to co-create Ascension with Matt "Batt" Banning. He would later work on the first three issues of Aphrodite IX with David Wohl. In 2003, Finch returned to comics for a year-long arc on Ultimate X-Men with writer Brian Michael Bendis. Following that stint, the duo moved on to Avengers, where they destroyed Marvel's premiere superhero team only to relaunch it as The New Avengers featuring a radically different cast. Finch is currently working on the new Moon Knight series together with novelist Charlie Huston.
