Synopsis

Now in one volume: the acclaimed tale of a starship run by cats! The intrepid Captain Ginger struggles to keep his fellow felines united against a hostile universe―and their own worst feline instincts, too. Featuring the entire original miniseries, plus two rare extra stories and a sketchbook of character designs.

Written and co-created by novelist/comics writer Stuart Moore (The Zodiac Legacy, EGOs, Deadpool the Duck). Art by cocreator June Brigman (Power Pack, Star Wars novels). Color by Veronica Gandini. Introduction by Walter Simonson (Thor, Ragnarok).

"Entertaining...this intergalactic feline space story is both action-packed and full of humor." -Albany Times Union

"It's a sci-fi story first, make no mistakes, but with so many strong characters onboard, I look forward to the catfights, comedy and―wait for it―catastrophes to come." -Comicon

"Captain Ginger rocks!" - Michael Allred, creator of Madman, artist of Silver Surfer

“This book is steeped in cat lore, cat behavior, and cat knowledge.” -Walter Simonson, writer/artist of Ragnarok and Thor, from his introduction

"A fantastic wild ride of space exploration, cat drama, and galactic size imagination." -Everything Action

“So wonderfully trippy and science fiction-y it reminds readers what it is about sci-fi that they love.” – Adventures in Poor Taste
