In addition to THE TRAVELER, Stan Lee also announced he’d be joining BOOM! Studios to create two other new ongoing superhero series, SOLDIER ZERO and STARBORN, all shipping this Fall.

SODLIER ZERO, written by ACTION COMICS’ and DOCTOR WHO’s Paul Cornell with art by SUPERMAN artist Javier Pina, features a wheelchair-bound college student who is transformed when he is bonded with an alien weapon that falls to Earth. Half-human. Half-alien. All weapon. Stuart Travers is the first line of defense in a galactic war where Earth is the battle field! SOLDIER ZERO ships this October.

STARBORN, written by iZOMBIE’s Chris Roberson with art by SPIDER-MAN’s Khary Randolph, tells the story of a regular guy who discovers he’s the heir to an intergalactic empire, putting him at the center of a war between five alien races. STARBORN ships this December.
