"When I first found Battle Above the Earth in my mailbox last year, Jeff Dee (boy Rembrandt and V&V co-author) and myself had been discussing ideas for a new wave of V&V adventures, that while still reflecting a reckless, fast-paced, comic book style would cover a wider range of settings, giving GMs more material that they could use in their campaigns and even containing optional rules variants to make playing all the more interesting.
Battle Above the Earth with its rescue mission basis, impending alien invasion, and outer space skirmishes seemed to be precisely what the Doctor (Apocalypse or DNA?) ordered."
