Meet the cops at the front line of alien immigration! Grey Area is a bold dystopian vision; an Alien Nation for the 21st Century! North America, 2045. The Global Exo Segregation Zone (aka the 'Grey Area') is a huge holding area in Arizona housing all manner of aliens hoping to visit earth: a melting pot for alien disputes, crime and inter-species misunderstandings! The only thing standing in the way of chaos is the Exo Transfer Control squads: heavily-armed immigration cops that keep the peace and make sure everyone has their papers in order… From contemptuous extra-terrestrial ambassadors with diplomatic immunity, to right-wing xenophobic militants and alien freeloaders disguised as luggage: new recruit Jana Birdy discovers that life in the E.T.C. might be the most interesting job on Earth... and the most dangerous! * Prescient dystopian tale of alien immigration - perfect for fans of the films District 9, Men in Black and Arrival. * Written by multiple New York Times bestselling author and award-winning comic book writer, Dan Abnett (Horus Heresy, The Avengers, The Guardians of the Galaxy) and illustrated by Judge Dredd artists Lee Carter and Mark Harrison. * "Fresh and exciting" - Broken Frontier * "Effortless...Grey Area feels like episodic network television" - Flickering Myth * Previous titles: 9780785149026 The Thanos Imperative; 9780785190646 Guardians Of The Galaxy; 9781781082355 Fiefdom
