The Earth is all but done. The last remnants of
humanity cling to a mountaintop island lost in endless floodwater.
The Parliaments of the Green, the Red, and the Rot all agree: it's
time to wipe the slate clean and start the cycle of life over
again. And to do so, they've united their powers to summon an
avatar-one of the most horrific monsters to ever stalk the surface
of this forsaken planet. Against a creature like that, there can be
no fighting back...unless you have a soldier who understands the
enemy. Someone who has used its tactics before. Someone like Alec
Holland.
Of course, it would help if Alec
Holland hadn't been dead for decades...
Jeff Lemire-the author of the
smash hits Joker: Killer Smile and The Question: The Deaths of Vic
Sage, along with the graphic novel that inspired the television
sensation Sweet Tooth-returns to Black Label with one of the
greatest artists in modern DC history, Doug Mahnke, in tow!
Together they'll unleash a gory, gruesome monster mash, where the
fate of humanity rests in the hands of someone who isn't human at
all!
