What begun as a salvage mission is now a desperate fight to survive.ĭead Space: Salvage is an exciting comic book written by Anthony Johnston who wrote the dialogue for the first game & it really fits within the universe. The organic substance spread throughout the ship reanimates & makes him ‘whole’ restarting the necromorph outbreak.

The ship is an eerie place but completely dead, that is until the incarcerated captain begins to dream of being ‘whole’. The rest of the crew lock him up in the Brig before deciding to see if there is a whole marker aboard. He attacks a member of the crew but is knocked out before he can do any real damage. The captain is a firm believer in Unitology & the discovery of the market fragments sends him into a rage when it is suggested that the group sell them. While exploring the group discover that parts of the Marker are embedded on the outer side of the ship & collect them prompting the captain to get all holy about them. No sign of any humans or necromorphs but the ship is covered in some sort of organic substance. The group land & find the USG Ishimura in a bad state & completely deserted.

Unfortunately for them the Earth government is also searching for the ship with Defence Secretary under orders to find the ship and the marker that was aboard. They recognise it instantly & see a big pay-pay in their future so the group decide to board the ship & see what’s worth salvaging. Dead Space: Salvage takes place between the events of the first game & the events of the animated horror, Dead Space: Aftermath (which leads into Dead Space 2).Ī group of freelance miners come across the floating bulk of the USG Ishimura deep in space.
