The gods above, the creeping below.
BOOM! Studios invites you to witness this violent, electrifying descent into a bloody, black metal infused revenge saga.
When Val, an American metalhead attending a music festival abroad in Oslo, is victimized and killed at the hands of a charismatically evil local black metal band, the Old Gods of Norse Mythology raise her up and guide along the path of brutal vengeance in the name of women everywhere. But will she walk the warriors path, or become something far more terrible?
The series debut issue features main cover art by Vanesa Del Rey, and variant covers by highly acclaimed illustrators Maria Llovet (Faithless), Mike Deodato Jr. (Berserker Unbound), and Jae Lee (The Dark Tower) & June Chung. Get your first look at the cover designs below:
