(W) Aubrey Sitterson, Chuck Wendig (A) Alvaro Sarreseca (CA) Aaron Lopresti
The fascist Saurian soldiers of the Varanid Empire - part dinosaur, part man, all bad news - have seized control of the Lost Valley, and only the mysterious man known as Turok is willing to stand against them! But the all-new Turok only cares about one thing: he's on a quest to track down a missing girl - and she might hold clues as to how the Lost Valley has changed so much! Now Turok must infiltrate a prison camp run by the Varanid Empire in order to get more information about her whereabouts - and beware, any Varanid soldier who gets in his way - because there's a reason they call him the Dinosaur Hunter! Also: Doc Spektor, Part 2! The story of the all-new master (and we use the term lightly) sorcerer continues... as Doc banishes a demon from an Upper-East Side apartment AND commits fraud - all in a day's work!
