Rebellion presents three action-packed stories from the legendary Lion comic, all featuring the work of master of chiaroscuro-style black-and-white art-Jos? Antonio Mu?oz. In 1973, Mu?oz worked on three short-lived strips in Lion. A Stitch in Time follows the adventures of a young boy named Stitch Cotton and his alien friend, Varl, after they steal a time machine from the sinister space-master, Mr. Universe. Lost in Limbo Land (written by 2000 AD regular, Chris Lowder), follows Barry Smith, a studious bookworm who is struck by lightning and flung into a world of Norse myth and legend. The final strip, Sark the Sleeper, sees a starship commander accidentally woken from hypersleep by two boys who are completely unaware that they are passengers flying through deep space in search of a new home.
