Before streaming, before cable, before television was a flickering box that lit up the American living room and reshaped our culture, there was an inventor with a dream. "Orbit: Television—The Medium That Changed the World" is a 22-page, full-color comic anthology exploring the creators, rebels, and quiet revolutionaries behind the medium that changed how we see the world. From Rod Serling's haunted truths to Lucille Ball's fearless ambition, from Archie Bunker's uncomfortable honesty to Mary Richards' empowering grace, this issue travels through time to spotlight the people who didn't just make TV, they made history. Told through cinematic visuals and intimate narration, this standalone comic is perfect for fans of biography, media history, and pop culture. One signal changed everything, because television isn't just entertainment. It's a mirror.
