As to the Moon landing's 50th anniversary commemorations in July draw closer to lift off, and with Todd Douglas Miller's documentary Apollo 11 splashing down in cinemas the dramatic account of this epoch-making event has also been retold in APOLLO, the best-selling graphic novel by a team of British storytellers. Written by Matt Fitch and Chris Baker, with art by Mike Collins, the book explores each dramatic step of the journey before the one giant leap, uniting facts, with urban legend, Supported by extensive research from books, official documents and recordings, an authentic and unique account of Neil Armstrong, Edwin 'Buzz' Aldrin and Michael Collins' historic adventure, this is a dynamic interpretation of those events of 20th July 1969.
