The digital edition of B7 Comics first mini-series, Pilgrim – Secrets and Lies, #2, written by John Freeman, with art by Neil Edwards, coloured by Martin Baines, lettered by Jim Campbell, with a cover by Alex Ronald, is available to buy now, direct from the publisher, ahead of its print release.

“In 2121, an alien presence has awoken in the Antarctic, its secrets potentially spelling the end of all human life – or transforming it into something new, but not without cost.

“A crack team of Alliance commandos, side by side with the psychic Lily Winters, a woman with her own agenda when it comes to this extra-terrestrial threat, discover far more than they expected when their mission goes dangerously wrong…”

Here’s a trailer – and a sneak peek at the action inside!

We’re told discussions are underway to potentially bring the story to life in other media, after recent excursions abroad by B7 Media’s Andrew Mark Sewell. Stay tuned!

The print edition of #2, distributed by GetMyComics, will be available in select newsagents across the UK and through comic shops.
