Now DC is taking a page from the fandom and venturing into new areas of high stakes with the Black Label release of The Last God #1 hits newsstands on October 30. It’s promising to reignite interest in the genre and elevate its appeal, broadening the publishing palette of the comics giant.

DC is promising a “high octane, no-holds-barred dark fantasy epic.” Each issue is artfully crafted by Riccardo Federici with colors by Sunny Gho with Dean White. “The Last God is an exciting new chapter for DC,” Mark Doyle, Executive Editor for DC has said. “It’s an epic, original story set in a bloody high-fantasy world. I cannot wait for people to read this book.”
