Nacelleverse Vol. 1: Biker Mice from Mars & Roboforce

In partnership with the Nacelle Company, Oni Press is proud to present a comics milestone four decades in the making as a new shared universe of toy and animation icons rockets into action from blockbuster writer Melissa Flores (Power Rangers, The Dead Lucky) and artistic powerhouses Rahmat Handoko (Guardians of the Galaxy), Rhoald Marcellius (All-New Inhumans), Francis Portela (Green Lantern, Faith) and more!

The beginnings of comics' newest shared universe kicks off in this exciting volume that will redefine what it means to be a hero. Enter: the Nacelleverse! After the cataclysmic destruction of his homeworld, the diminutive alien Garloo must seek out a new planet to call home. With the help of the alien smuggler, Lepaa, Garloo's travels will bring him into contact with the mysterious Power Lords and the alien Sectaurs before his journey ultimately brings him to 22nd century Earth--home of RoboForce, an obsolete robotic wrecking crew who seek to forge a new destiny for themselves. But when an important cybernetic chip is stolen from RoboForce's inventor by futuristic tech-pirates, it's up to Maxx '89 and his teammates to retrieve the item. But will their mission end in triumph, tragedy . . . or both?

Meanwhile, a planet away, on Mars, best friends Throttle, Vinnie, and Modo aka the Biker Mice From Mars, find their way of life--and the safety of their loved ones--threatened when the alien, fishlike Plutarkians invade their beloved homeworld and begin stripmining it of its precious resources. Are our intrepid heroes ready to fight for their right to freedom? It's the age-old tale of buddies, bikes, brotherhood, and lots of stuff blowing up (with a bit of romance) when "Mars War" erupts!

This volume collects NacelleVerse #0, RoboForce #1-3, and Biker Mice from Mars #1-3
