The first installment of The Last of the Giants is a 31-page story about an over-the-hill United States Space Marshal, Frank Rockwell. Frank doesn't care about saving face. He doesn't care if a humpback whale is about to be elected president. All Frank cares about is getting his man. Tracking would-be assassins and homicidal clones through the gutters and tourist traps of the furthest reaches of the universe, he wheels and deals with the most wretched critters under their respective suns, stopping at nothing to get these criminals to justice in time for happy hour.
