Eisner Winner for Best New Series of 2020!

Hugo and World Fantasy Award-winning author G. Willow Wilson (Ms. Marvel) and acclaimed artist Christian Ward (2020 Eisner Winner for Best Painter/Digital Artist on this title) team up for an epic sci-fi saga!


In a small solar system in a far-flung galaxy, two women—one a young religious acolyte and the other, a hard-bitten freighter pilot—uncover a conspiracy between the leaders of the most dominant religion and an all-consuming mega-corporation.


On the run from reprisals on both sides, this unlikely pair must decide where their loyalties lie—and risk plunging the world into anarchy if they reveal the truth.


Collects Invisible Kingdom #1–#5.
Willow is author of the New York Times bestselling comic book series Ms. Marvel, winner of the 2015 Hugo Award for Best Graphic Story. Her first novel, Alif the Unseen, was a New York Times Notable Book of 2012, long listed for the Women's Prize for Fiction (formerly the Orange Prize) and winner of the World Fantasy Award for Best Novel. At San Diego Comic Con, it was announced that Willow would take over writing duties on the ongoing Wonder Woman comic book series in November 2018.

Willow was born in New Jersey and attended high school in Colorado. After converting to Islam in 2003 at age 20, Willow spent the next several years living in Egypt and studying religion and Arabic. Her work often addresses the fault lines between tradition and pop culture.

She currently lives in Seattle with her husband and two children.
