Signal From Space (Life on Another Planet)

It's the near future, and the first evidence of intelligent life on another planet reaches earth–a signal from space. Will Eisner traces the effects around the world as mankind discovers we're not alone in the universe. It's the ultimate combination of science fiction situations and Eisner's masterful depiction of human emotion as men and women under the ultimate stress discover who they really are. You'll find perfect millennial reading for the end of the century in Eisner's speculative fiction graphic novel! Features an introduction by Nebula-award winning science fiction author James Morrow.

"This was originally entitled Life on Another Planet and was an attempt to produce a graphic novel that was constructed in the same structure as a classic literary work. By taking what would be a science-fiction plot and treating it from a more humanistic viewpoint I hoped to come up with a book that would deserve adult interest."--Will Eisner, July 2000
