14 years later, one of the '90s best sci-fi TV shows returns to comics

Art from Farscape 25th Anniversary Special #1.

Cult sci-fi TV show Farscape turns 25 in 2024. The much-loved Australian series, which ran for four full seasons and a miniseries, first star-burst onto TV screens in 1999 and offered a very different approach to deep space adventuring than the then dominant Star Trek franchise. Where those shows focused on deep space professionals embarking on quests for peace and diplomacy, Farscape was about a crew of reprobates and outlaws. Entire episodes were devoted to lost astronaut John Crichton and chums (several of whom were puppets) getting drunk, or in one memorable case, hallucinating the episode as a cartoon. It was, in short, brilliant - and now it's getting a 25th anniversary comic special. 

Here's Steve Morris's main cover for the special, followed by a variant from Vincenzo Riccardi and a photo cover. Ariel Olivetti will provide a fourth, as-yet-unseen cover.
