Last Starfighter Beta #1 Cover B Jessica Fong Variant

THE BELOVED DUPLICATE GETS HIS DUE! When the Ko-Dan Armada sent an assassin to kill small-town boy Alex Rogan, it was Alex’s simuloid duplicate Beta who saved the day, sacrificing himself to convince the Ko-Dan that Alex was dead. The move bought the Last Starfighter valuable time—enough to sabotage the Ko-Dan mothership and save the planet Rylos. That’s been the story for forty years. Now, the original film writer Jonathan Betuel joins a star-studded creative team to reveal Beta’s true fate! Beta survived the Ko-Dan assault, but he’s not the only alien entity left on Earth. And with Alex far away, Beta’s stranded and alone. Can an organic robot with no orders to execute find his own purpose on an alien planet? Not if the Zando-Zan have anything to say about it! A hilarious and heartwarming one-shot from writers Benjamin Raab and Deric A. Hughes (Syfy's WAREHOUSE 13, The CW's ARROW, NBC’s QUANTUM LEAP & more) and artist David Cutler (Marvel’s Voices, Giant-Size X-Men: Thunderbird), and a can’t-miss installment in The Last Starfighter mythos!
