Author: Tim Seeley

Traveling to another world was dangerous – but for Mariposa Montiel returning home is when the real trouble begins!

From Narnia to Oz, those world travelers are forever changed–and as agents of NO Place they are our only defense against the horrors entering ours!

Mariposa Montiel is having a cruel homecoming. As the daughter of immigrants, the outcast teenager is no stranger to scrutiny, but this is another level. Years after vanishing from her Chicago neighborhood, Mari has returned to a traumatized family and a media circus with nothing but a tiger-striped feather and an extraordinary tale of her time away as the champion of a magical jungle land called Mayahuela.

Mari is met as a fraud and her story makes her a stranger in her own life until an eccentric, high-tech organization known as N.O. Place emerges from the shadows and welcomes her home. Led by a legend of the Land of Oz, the secret agency has its finger on the pulse of so-called fictional worlds–and as its newest recruit, Mari is now called upon to save our own world from a creeping Lovecraftian nightmare.

NO Place collects the complete series, issues #1- 5 as well as The Cold Open, a #0 issue available in the stores for the first time!
