Let's face it: From adenines to zygotes, from cytokinesis to parthenogenesis, even the basics of genetics can sound utterly alien. So who better than an alien to explain it all? Enter Bloort 183, a scientist from an asexual alien race threatened by disease, who's been charged with researching the fundamentals of human DNA and evolution and laying it all out in clear, simple language so that even his slow-to-grasp-the-point leader can get it. In the hands of the award-winning writer Mark Schultz, Bloort's predicament becomes the means of giving even the most science-phobic reader a complete introduction to the history and science of genetics that's as easy to understand as it is entertaining to read.
About the Author: Mark Schultz has written for DC Comics and Marvel Comics, and his scripts and illustrations--most notably for his tour-de-force series Xenozoic Tales (also known as Cadillacs and Dinosaurs) and Superman--have garnered five Harvey Awards, two Eisners, and an Inkpot.
