Planetary

In a world of hidden histories and secret science, Planetary follows a team of "archaeologists of the unknown" who uncover the true, often bizarre backstory of the 20th century's pop culture and superhuman phenomena. Published by Gotham Entertainment Group, this 2002 series ran for only five issues, establishing a dense, conspiracy-laden mythology through the work of its core creative team. Its significance lies in its ambitious reimagining of genre tropes, presenting a cohesive, darkly wondrous universe where every mystery has a purpose.
