HOMICRON, a NASA scientist whose body is possessed by a mysterious alien from planet Alpha. STARLOCK, a servant of the Towers, supremely powerful cosmic entities. FUTURA, a mysterious woman from a parallel dimension. JAYDEE, a teenage, alien metamorph, abandoned on Earth as a baby, and who may well be the deadliest killing machine in the universe... These characters, all "strangers" to Earth, are brought together by TANKA, a former jungle lord who has been recruited by entities from our planet's farthest future to be their "time agent" and is now empowered to protect our world from extra-terrestrial menaces. In this tenth volume of Strangers, the heroes clash with the renegade Salamandrite known only as Mr. 17 to prevent the return of his masters, the space vampires called the Wan Lords, whom Kabur once defeated in the distant past... Special guest-stars: The Guardian of the Republic! Morgane! Scarlet Lips!
