  Fan-favorite animation hero Ben 10 returns in an all-new series, collected here for the first time! When a mysterious meteor crashes to Earth, 10-year-old Ben Tennyson discovers the Omnitrix, a high-tech alien gauntlet of incredible power and potential. With this device on his wrist, Ben has the power to transform into incredible alien forms. But can he control this power? This is the modern, definitive take on Ben 10 from the team that created him – Man of Action – including the introductions of numerous alien foes in an epic retelling and expansion of his original story, written by Joe Casey. Then, writer Steven T. Seagle steps in as things take a turn for the creepy. In a rainy Northwest stop on their endless summer vacation, the Tennyson family is drawn to a circus where the crowds aren't cheering, the clowns aren't laughing, and the ringmaster has plans for a frightful future well beyond his broken big top. Can Ben master the Omnitrix in time to find the right alien to stop the bizarre ZOMBOZO from making Grandpa Max his next death-defying act? Collecting BEN 10 #1 – 5 with a complete gallery of covers. $24.99 11/11/2026
