Jonathan Hickman's vision for the end of the world through divine retribution continues as an ongoing series from his co-writer Mike Costa! After the cataclysmic battle of gods in the first arc, human religions are in tatters. A victor has laid claim to Earth and very few dare to oppose such a ruler. But oh so many gods have yet to make their play, this time they plan and plot and prepare to bring Armageddon! And now...the things we prayed to have come once more. Mike Costa turns the intensity and darkness up a notch with his dramatic new stories about humanity at the brink. Available with not only a Regular cover but also a End of Days cover, Iconic, and Gilded Order Incentive copies by Jacen Burrows and a special Carnage Wraparound by German Nobile!

Scratch is an ordinary cat who can summon his nine lives to get himself and his pet posse out of a jam.
