The Ballad of Halo JonesThe Ballad of Halo Jones

"Halo Jones is bored. Trapped in The Hoop, a futuristic world where jobs are scarce and excitement non-existent, Halo sets out to see the galaxy any way she can and to rewrite her destiny. From drudge work on a glamorous cruise liner, to serving in a brutal war zone, Halo experiences love and loss and she grows up into the woman who will change the course of the galaxy's history. Radical and revolutionary, Alan Moore (Watchmen, V for Vendetta) and Ian Gibson's (Star Wars: Boba Fett Adventures) ground-breaking feminist space opera classic is collected in a full colour omnibus hardback for the first time. A cultural icon and a high mark for British science fiction, this timeless tale of one woman's endurance amidst a sea of dead-end and deadly jobs remains one of Alan Moore's most beloved sagas. Restored and lovingly coloured by Barbara Nosenzo, and featuring a new introduction by Kieron Gillen and bonus content, The Ballad of Halo Jones remains essential reading."--Page 4 of cover.
