A deadly biochemical virus called Captain Trips kills nearly everyone it infects, and the individuals who survive the virus are sought by the government that engineered it.

When something goes horribly awry at a secret army base in the California desert, Charlie Campion and his family flee into the night, unaware that they carry a deadly virus that will spread a wave of death across the United States.

The Stand is a classic tale of good vs. evil, loss weighed against redemption and despair pitted against hope. It is an apocalyptic vision of man's battle to save life against a worldwide plague of death. For when Captain Trips works its way across the land, it is time to make a stand. Award-winning writer Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa (HBO's Big Love), and artists Mike Perkins (CaptainAmerica) and Laura Martin (Astonishing X-Men), join forces to bring one of the great novels of modern literature to life through graphic art storytelling.
