The New Wave #4

Aug 1986 · Eclipse · 0.50 USD; 0.75 CAD
“Stop the Station, I Want to Get Off!”

In "Stop the Station, I Want to Get Off!", Tachyon adjusts to life aboard the space station as tensions rise between Dot and Polestar, who attempt to send a crucial warning to Earth. With James sending Tachyon back to Earth, the mission carries the weight of unintended consequences — and the danger of being seen. Written by Sean Deming and Mindy Newell, with dynamic art by Lee Weeks and inks by Ty Templeton, this 1986 Eclipse issue blends quiet tension with the looming sense of exposure, all wrapped in Sam Parsons’ vivid colors and Carrie Spiegle’s sharp lettering. The cover by Weeks and Templeton captures the moment’s urgency with striking precision.
