Formic Wars: Silent Strike

Set during the early conflicts of the Formic Wars, this 2012 Marvel one-shot explores a pivotal, previously untold skirmish from the Ender's Game universe. Written by Orson Scott Card and Aaron Johnston, with art by Giancarlo Caracuzzo, it offers a focused, tactical look at the first human encounters with the Formic species. The issue deepens the mythology of Card's sci-fi saga by zeroing in on a single, brutal engagement, providing essential context for the larger war.
