With Earth no longer capable of sustaining humanity, several enormous fleets leave the Solar System in search of new habitable worlds. After decades of travel, the colonists reach different exoplanets and discover that most of them are already inhabited by intelligent civilizations. Faced with the need to survive and build a new future, humanity must choose between coexistence, negotiation, and conquest. Across different planets, populations, and crews, the series explores the conflicts caused by colonization, encounters with alien species, and the political, military, and human consequences of humanity’s expansion.

Album 1
Humanity is now made up of five colonies with an armada of ships that crisscross space towards five exoplanets. These worlds, populated by intelligent life forms, involve a single choice dictated by survival: conquer. The objective is achieved: Islandia, a planet of ice where only one race of indigenous people is listed. On the order of Admiral Ragnvald Hakarsson, the oberleutnant Kirsten Konig is responsible for establishing contact with the Islanders. But since his awakening, Konig has had constant headaches, vertigo and hallucinations that seem to be connected to the planet. On the ground, he is told that Colony 2 has been attacked without leaving any survivors or witnesses.Konig investigates, and while everything accuses the Islanders, she digs a whole other trail that will lead her to the heart of a plot she never thought possible.
Album 2
Humanity is now composed of 5 colonies. Each has an armada of ships that travels through 5 exoplanets. These worlds, populated by intelligent life forms, involve a single choice dictated by survival: conquering. A blue planet where water overwhelms most of the land. At the bottom of the ocean and on the rare peaks emerging remain the ruins of ancient civilizations that worshiped a race of octopus endowed with psychic powers... The gigantic cephalopods resurface to welcome the humans who settled on the islands. But aliens are not as peaceful as they seem and take control of some humans. A war begins, but the conflict this time opposes man to man.
Album 3
Humanity is now composed of 5 colonies. Each has an armada of ships that travels through 5 exoplanets. These worlds, populated by intelligent life forms, involve a single choice dictated by survival: conquer. Decornum is vast and its abundant resources could allow the Japanese colony to lay the foundations of a new civilization... if only part of the aliens, whose heart is capable of generating almost unlimited energy, were not hostile to them. Out of breath, men and equipment, the colony is forced to retreat, leaving on the planet some burned heads like Keïto whose mission is to collect information vital to their survival.
Album 4
Uranie is habitable even though all intelligent life seems to have disappeared. Traces of a civilization dot the great desert and it is during an expedition that two cyborg space-marines discover cities demonstrating the exceptional technological advancement of its inhabitants. They are also interlocked by their appearance comparable to the great monkeys. During excavations, a scientist triggers despite him the awakening of what caused the loss of the Uranians: an artificial intelligence named Akarus.
Album 5
The ships of the Canadian fleet orbit around Enorus while the authorities are looking for the best possible place to establish a first colony there. This is at least the official version. The truth? A phenomenon of glaciation as brutal as unexpected has stifled any hope of being able to live there one day! Enorus is dead and the fleet does not have enough resources to join another planet, unless it sacrifices half of its vessels, or 200,000 people.
Album 6
The Russian fleet has reached Adonai and discovers that a jungle extends over the entire surface of the planet. After setting up a bridgehead, the commissioners launch an offensive against the Cameleons, almost invisible humanoids that have carried out deadly raids against humans. After months of campaigning, the army became engulfed in a war of wear and the dead number in thousands. So, when Second Lieutenant Orlov and his squad find themselves cut off from their line with only what they carry on their backs, for them, no alternative than to advance or die...
Album 7
Tanami is a hostile planet blocked to the Jurassic where Australians act as an amuse. Dinosaurs are not the only enemy, there is this thing that resembles a symbiote and was there long before. A handful of survivors wakes up in the middle of a jungle aboard an alien boat. All they remember is their escape to escape the destruction of the Earth. They will have to re-paste the pieces of the puzzle that led them up until then to hope to survive. But as the veil of amnesia rips apart, they discover that the enemy is not only outside.
Album 8
The Crusaders, en route to the planet Jerusalem, settle on Neïta, where a colony of miners lives. The inquisitor Evangelisti discovers that Nazareth Prime has become a ghost town. Then begins an investigation that will lead him to the heart of the mine, to an entity that says to be called Yahweh. As the colonists reappear in a state close to the catatonia, on Neïta, the mystery thickens...
Album 9
After sixty years of travel, the African armada is at the end, it has to land on Sahondra. A paradise planet governed by biological absurdity: no creature measures more than a few centimetres. What kills and regulates animal biomass? A virus? An unknown life form? Kenya, a genius biologist, has to penetrate this mystery, otherwise its own will die in exile.
Album 10
English and French have reached the planet Sylaris whose civilization is surprisingly close to ours. The colonists, parked, wait for an agreement between the governments to be found. But the deals are eternal and the tension rises... Even if the Foreign Legion has been demobilized and disarmed, their old fox captain knows that when it goes far, he can count on his men.
