Star Slammers

Walter Simonson's Star Slammers (1994–present, Malibu) is a lean, four-issue sci-fi epic written and drawn entirely by Simonson himself, blending his signature dynamic art with a gritty military-space opera. The series follows the brutal interstellar campaigns of a future mercenary unit, centering on figures like Rensselaer Lustgarten and Colonel Phaedra as they navigate loyalty and survival on a hostile frontier. Though brief, it stands as a distinctive, creator-driven work from the 1990s, showcasing Simonson's singular vision away from the mainstream superhero universes he helped define.
