Les survivants de l'escadrille Purgatory ont réussi l'impossible, refermer le Mur, la structure gigantesque et impénétrable qui était apparue à la périphérie du système solaire. Mais l'étrange phénomène astrophysique les a fait ressortir dans leur propre passé. Au cours de cet incroyable périple, ils ont appris que le Mur fut créé par une expérience des Compagnies Industrielles de Colonisation, et que ces mêmes CIC ont mis en orbite autour de la Terre un dispositif tout aussi dangereux... moreLes survivants de l'escadrille Purgatory ont réussi l'impossible, refermer le Mur, la structure gigantesque et impénétrable qui était apparue à la périphérie du système solaire.

Les CIC oseraient-elles anéantir la Terre comme elles ont anéanti Uranus ? L'escadrille Purgatory a un atout décisif à jouer : leur voyage dans le temps, qui leur donne trois jours d'avance sur les événements, trois jours pour retourner clandestinement sur Terre, trois jours pour trouver la station des CIC et désamorcer la folie des hommes, trois jours enfin pour empêcher que le berceau de l'humanité ne soit emporté dans un cataclysme qui ferait oublier même le déluge biblique. Une telle horreur ouvrirait-elle la première guerre universelle ? less

The series was initially published in France by Soleil Productions from 1998 to 2006. Due to its popularity, it was later translated and released in English by Marvel Comics. The genre is military science fiction, and the series deals with such ideas as time dilation and time travel. Following the comics standards in France and Belgium, each of the six part of the story has an approximately 50 pages length, making the whole story longer than usual limited series. The first issue of a follow up series Universal War Two is announced in French for 23 September 2013.The series begins at the onset of a civil war between the United Earth Forces (UEF) and the Colonization Industrial Companies (CIC), which comprises the various outposts and colonies beginning at the planet Saturn and beyond. The civil war begins when it is discovered that an immense black wall appears near Saturn, cutting the solar system in two. The black wall absorbs all light and matter. Enormous, incomprehensible and terrifying, "the wall" is centered on Uranus's moon Oberon, cutting off access to any planet beyond Saturn. Admiral Von Richtburg discovers that the CIC was attempting to begin a civil war, and orders the Purgatory Squadron, a band of soldiers given a second chance after courts-martial, to investigate the phenomenon known as "the wall". After the Purgatory Squadron devises a method of breaching and investigating the wall, they are fired upon by a vessel of unknown design. Admiral von Richtburg orders his UEF 3rd Fleet into the wall, and thus begins the First Universal War. less

The Purgatory Squadron's survivors have done the impossible; by traveling through time they've shut down the impenetrable Wall that cut the solar system in two. In doing so, they've discovered that the rebellious Colonization Industrial Companies have hidden a satellite in Earth's orbit that could destroy the planet just as the CIC eradicated Uranus. But the Purgatory Squadron has a trump card. Now stranded three days in their own past, they just might be able to return to Earth without notice... moreThe Purgatory Squadron's survivors have done the impossible; by traveling through time they've shut down the impenetrable Wall that cut the solar system in two.
