Color by Jon Proctor. Years ago, everyone "useful" was taken away by aliens to an unknown place, leaving the young, elderly, and disabled. Now teens, Sam and her twin brother Wyatt (who seems to be on the autism spectrum) find themselves in a unique position to help whoever is left--and hopefully find their parents. Walz's emotively illustrated graphic novel puts a heartfelt spin on the alien-takeover scenario.
