In this Crimson Plague comic book series, something horrible has happened on MannaWorks 3 -- in one night the entire population of the prison mining colony on one of Jupiter's moons has been destroyed, all their bodies putrified into masses of red mush-- all dead except for a mysterious young woman with a ribbon of crimson in her long black hair. Five years later, the same woman is at the center of a series of similar bloody deaths on another Mars colony. DiNA Simmons is no ordinary woman. Her blood is lethal to the touch. During certain biological cycles DiNA: Simmons is at her most deadly -- when destructive toxins in her blood become an airborne virus -- capable of destroying an entire planet in a night -- a crimson plague for which there is no known cure -- and no escape. A crimson plague that is one step closer to reaching Earth.
