An amazing, genre-breaking story from Grant Morrison, one of the most original and inventive writers in comics today. Legendary Comics proudly presents Annihilator, an original graphic novel odyssey from the subversive mind of Grant Morrison. This 6-issue series is a reality-bending sci-fi adventure like no other, brought to life with stunning artwork from Frazer Irving (Batman and Robin, Judge Dredd, Necronauts). Washed-up Hollywood screenwriter Ray Spass is caught in a downward spiral of broken relationships, wild parties and self-destruction. Out of luck and out of chances, he's one failed script away from fading into obscurity. Little does he know he's about to write the story of his life. As his imagination runs rampant, Ray must join forces with his own fictional character Max Nomax on a reality-bending race to stop the entire universe from imploding... without blowing his own mind in the process. • New York Times Bestselling Author • Written by Grant Morrison (Animal Man, Batman, All Star Superman, Fantastic Four) • This is the compilation of the 6 issue series • Featuring interiors and covers by Frazier Irving (Batman and Robin, Uncanny X-Men) • Includes bonus materials on the making of the comic "Morrison is one of the most adventurous and commercially successful comic-book writers of the past 25 years, retrieving superheroic and science-fictional dispatches from the fringes of consciousness, splattering his chaotic visions onto the page." -- Rolling Stone "I think [Annihilator is] the best stuff I've done yet." -- Frazer Irving From the Hardcover edition.

This is the first book in a series of short stories set in an area of the universe inhabited by a race known as the Felmorians. Three stories are included in this edition and together they serve as an introduction to the Alliance and its people. Starting 200 years previously the once great symbols of justice and peace are destroyed allowing two races to seize control of the Alliance Council. Then in the present day the people are subjected to the whims of their tyrannical leaders the Wolvus and Monitres. Though many are unhappy they live in fear of the Sentinels and Dark Guards, the enforcers of the Alliance. In this time period the Rangers are little more than a myth until fate brings together two smugglers, a member of the Resistance and a Dark Guard who by a series of unplanned events bring about a return of four Rangers displaced out of time. Together the eight of them vow to restore freedom to the people by fighting the oppression, and they become the "Last of the Rangers".

This IBM Redbooks publication provides a getting started level of information about supporting the IBM Virtualization Engine TS7510 under i5/OS, primarily using the Backup Recovery and Media Services (BRMS), 5722-BR1, management product. BRMS is the primary backup and recovery management product for i5/OS. This book cannot make you an expert in i5/OS backup and recovery or in the use of BRMS. It also cannot make you an expert in full usage and management of the IBM Virtualization Engine TS7510 capabilities. More complete coverage of the TS7510 is included in the book IBM Virtualization Engine TS7510: Tape Virtualization for Open Systems Servers, SG24-7189. However, this book does provide sufficient information and examples to get you up and running with the IBM Virtualization Engine TS7510 attached to an i5/OS partition or system using BRMS. This book also helps you to understand where the IBM Virtualization Engine TS7510 can fit into your complete set of backup and recovery processes where multiple systems or servers, or logical partitions have to save data to a common repository. The TS7510 helps you to minimize your backup window, facilitates data sharing among the multiple systems, and helps you to minimize your total cost of ownership (TCO) in the backup and recovery area.
