The first volume of Lost in Space: Countdown to Danger, which is the official four-part comic book expansion of the hit Netflix original series, is currently available.

The graphic novel from Legendary Comics features all-new, untold adventures of the full crew “and invites fans to dive deeper into the backstories of their favorite heroic characters—including the Robinsons, Robot, Doctor Smith and Don West.”

Volume One features two new stories centering around Will and Penny. “Secrets” is written by Richard Dinnick. “Penny & Judith” has been written by Brian Buccellato. All artwork is by ZID.

“Lost in Space: Countdown to Danger represents another opportunity for Legendary Comics to build upon and expand the intricate universes created by our popular film and television series,” said Robert Napton, Senior Vice President of Legendary Comics. “Richard, Brian, and ZID’s thrilling stories and beautiful artwork will surely draw fans further into new adventures featuring their favorite ‘Lost in Space’ characters.”

Here’s the description about the show:

LOST IN SPACE is set thirty years in the future. En route to a distant colony, the Robinson family finds itself thrown off-course when their ship crash-lands on a mysterious and dangerous planet. On this strange new world, they encounter a hostile environment and an enigmatic alien robot. In order to survive, the Robinson family must rely on their training, and they’ll discover that no matter how lost they are, their family is their home.

The new graphic series offers readers the chance to explore “new missions, not aired on television, as our heroes struggle to survive in an unknown world full of new creatures, unexpected visitors, and new danger.”

Volume Two, set to be released in Spring 2019, will continue the adventure with a focus on fan favorite Robot and Doctor Smith, played by Parker Posey.

Legendary Television is currently in production on the second season of Lost in Space. The Netflix series is based on Irwin Allen’s classic 1960’s science fiction series starring Molly Parker (House of Cards), Toby Stephens (Black Sails) and Parker Posey (Café Society).

You can watch the first season of Lost in Space (consisting of 10 episodes) on Netflix.
