Written by Rob Rodi, art by Mauricet & Ernie Colon, colors by Mark McNabb A whole comics universe ... set in a single-family ranch house. Meet Carter Crossover, the super-hero known as Archetype ... his wife, Calista, a fourth-generation vampire slayer ... daughter Cris, who's also the warrior princess Eradika ... and son Clifford, UFO abductee and alien collaborator. Can a family survive the rigors of four genres, and only one bathroom? In Part 2 of the 6-part "Cross Currents," the Crossovers have a family meeting about safety. Too bad they don't address the super-villain who's out to destroy them. Or the vampire who may beat him to it. Or the Imperial army set to crush Cris's tribe. Or for that matter, the coming invasion of Earth! 32 pages full color, on sale February 19 ... $2.95 Cover price $2.95.
