A SPECTACULAR SUMMER EVENT! This summer, every second counts when acclaimed writer Jody Houser (Mother Panic, Star Wars: Rogue One), explosive artist Stephen Segovia (NINJAK, Action Comics), comics legend Barry Kitson (Fantastic Four), and special surprise guests push Faith into a centuries-spanning fight for existence alongside the greatest heroes of the Valiant Universe…past, present, and future!

Faith “Zephyr” Herbert – former member of Unity, current Harbinger Renegade, and Los Angeles’ #1 superhero – is the universe’s last, best chance at survival! Centuries from today, a devious artificial intelligence has unleashed a blistering attack on the very foundations of time…one that is unwriting history from beginning to end! Now, with her options exhausted, Neela Sethi, Timewalker – the self-appointed protector of what is and will be – has returned to the 21st century to recruit Earth’s greatest champions of today and tomorrow to oppose this existential threat…and she needs Faith to lead them! But why Faith? And why now?

This July, fly to the farthest edges of the future in a death-defying race to save time itself, as Faith leads the charge alongside Valiant’s greatest heroes…and becomes a new legend for the ages!

Synopsis

Brilliant physicist, Neela Sethi, unlocked the secrets of time travel last year - relatively speaking - and began her epic journey across time. She's since traveled to a time before man, tried to kill history, seen the end of the universe, and befriended Ank, a dinosaur like-woman.

Now, Neela, Timewalker along with her partner Ank protect the time stream from anyone or anything that threatens it.

Today they're in our present to recruit the help of Faith Herbert, celebrity hero, psiot, and fangirl with the power of flight.

Notes

Faith makes several references to Doctor Who including "Allons-y!" ("Let's Go!") that was coined by the Tenth Doctor.

Quotes

You wouldn't guess it, but I'm actually a superhero. (Although if you woulnd't guess it, that means I did a good job on my alter ego.)

-- Faith

And who knows how many people who need a superhero won't be able to find one?

-- Faith

Come with me if you want to save history.

-- Neela

I don't know why I even bother with the Zelig chip. If it could be better calibrated for my kind... But no, you mammals don't bother to think about anyone else.

-- Ank

How can a war be civil?

-- Ank

This looks like a job for someone in an actual superhero costume.

-- Faith

Time to save time.

-- Faith

Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast.
