Presenting a fantastic new adventure by New York Times bestselling and multiple Eisner Award-winning writer John Layman (CHEW, DETECTIVE COMICS) and eye-popping, mind-blowing art by Nick Bradshaw (SPIDER-MAN, WOLVERINE). There''s a region in the Atlantic Ocean where planes disappear, ships are lost, and traveling souls go missing... never to be heard from again. And there''s an island within this place, mysterious and uncharted, untouched by time and civilization, where all who are lost end up—human or other! Bermuda lives here. She''s 16, scrappy, and living on this insane and wondrous jungle island—fighting at every turn to survive—is the only life she has ever known. She can handle the dinosaurs, the pirates, the crazed soldiers, dark magicians, and strange monsters. But the weird new kid who washes ashore just may be the biggest challenge Bermuda has ever faced—as he drags her along on a perilous rescue mission she wants no part of… and he’s likely to be the death of both of them!

Amelia Mintz is a food critic and a Saboscrivner.

Since the government prohibition of poultry, she''s lost her enthusiasm for the culinary world, and only reviews restaurants with a ''D'' rating or less from the Health Department. Her last review caused half the city to projectile vomit, and sent hundreds to the hospital with severe food poisoning. Agent Tony Chu has been assigned to arrest Amerlia Mintz, but there''s just one problem with that...he''s madly in love with her!
