Created by Jack Kirby, plotted by Roy Thomas, scripted by Gerry Conway and Illustrated by Don Heck, this never-reprinted tale from Topps Comics' one-shot NightGlider (1993) was an integral part of the projected "KirbyVerse" featuring concepts and characters created by Jack (King) Kirby, one of the major creative forces in comics from the birth of the Golden Age in 1940 to the then-present of 1993!.
Glida/NightGlider, with her fellow genetically-enhanced soldiers Bombast and Captain Glory, would battle the evil forces that had also survived the disaster that doomed the Ninth Men 15,000 years earlier and keep them from dominating the humans of the present (aka "Tenth Men") in the Secret City Saga mini-series!

After the end of that series, the group were to continue fighting the good fight in a new mini-series, Victory! along with other, already-existing characters created by Kirby like Silver Star and Captain Victory and the Galaxy Rangers, but it was cancelled after the first issue, with the remaining four parts unpublished to this day!
