Vanya the Lost Warrior is a sci-fi comic created by Mike Tener and Zoran Jovovich, and published by Bad Bug Media.
In the late 23rd century, time travel has been perfected, to the point that the military now regularly sends recruits into the prehistoric past for extreme wilderness training as humanity prepares to colonize other worlds. These recruits are called the Time Guard, and those who succeed are offered a place on one of the new colonies.
Vanya Tepanov is one such recruit. To secure a place for herself and her girlfriend Serah, she agrees to go on a one-year mission to the distant past, with no weapons, no gear, and no back-up.
Unfortunately for her, during her absence, Earth is attacked by the Terridians, and now she and a newly-deputized Serah must find the other Time Guards and find a new way home. She also has to contend with the Bone King, a renegade Time Guard who has formed a cult in the past and doesn't want his peers interfering.
