Issue One Ĭhapter One begins with a very bloody Sergeant Abraham Neumann from P-SEC making a security log, with blood on the walls all around him. Neumann notes that it might be a long day.

As operatives Jones and McCabe arrive, Lisa's infected body jumps through the wall. After being thrown to the ground, Neumann finds a taser which he then uses to shock Lisa. Without warning, Lisa's writhing and growling corpse impales Cortez in the shoulder, while Neumann fires his weapon and calls for backup. She calls Marla to request a trauma team. Cortez finds Lisa's mangled body, which to her shock - moves. Neumann notes that this incident would be the 32nd assault in the past week, as opposed to three since the colony started. Neumann and Cortez enter the room, which 'stinks' according to Cortez, and find blood stains on the wall and floor. He contacts Marla Janssen at P-SEC who unlocks the door from her end.

Neumann attempts to open the door and discovers the pad is inactive. Sergeant Abraham Neumann and Detective Vera Cortez, operatives from Planetside Security ( P-Sec), are investigating a local disturbance at Apartment 23 Row D4 B Block, inhabited by a surveyor named Lisa and her husband Tom who works at the morgue. The comics start off with Neumann making a video log about what happens in the comic, but the comic drifts away from Neumann's point of view occasionally and feature events where Neumann is not present. In present time, a new marker has been discovered on another colony and strange things have been happening amongst the colonists. Altman was later killed, allegedly by the Earth Government, in an attempt to silence the truth - however, the veracity of this account has yet to be confirmed. Two-hundred years prior, a man named Michael Altman discovered an artifact of unknown origin (known as 'The Marker') which led him to begin a new religion - Unitology - that supposedly taught the truth about human existence. In the distant future, humanity has colonized worlds beyond Earth's solar system.
