Plot
This comic picks up right where the cult science fiction film of the 1980s left off, with Alex Rogan selected as a Star League pilot after achieving the highest score on an arcade video game created by the mysterious genius Century. This test is called the Excalibur Test.
Alex becomes the last and only space pilot to join a space police force that fought against Xur and his Ko-Dan Armada in an unprecedented battle where only Alex and his alien co-pilot, Grig, survived.
The whereabouts of the fearsome Xur are unknown, but the planet Rylos, home to the Starfight Legion, needs to rebuild its space fleet and recruit new pilots. Alex is tasked with this, but it's not a simple mission.
