Satan has made his move. Roderick Helms and the former members of Fiat Lux find themselves scrambling to counter. Can they prevent this newer deadlier version of the Black Plague from evolving any further?
Written by the master of violence, gore, and mayhem, Frank Tieri (Harley Quinn, Marvel vs Capcom, Wolverine, Deadpool), with spectacular art from illustrator Oleg Okunev, and covers by Eisner Award-nominated artist Tim Bradstreet (The Punisher, Hellblazer) comes the series that HAD to be told at AfterShock Comics!
Pestilence: A Story of Satan is poised to end with the next issue. I can't imagine how this harrowing tale will wrap up. Writer Frank Tieri has taken an already terrifying tale to new heights with this chapter and the mini-series as a whole. Pestilence took a new, undead look at the bubonic plague. Its follow up has brought in the biggest bad there is and will shake you to the core. This is grade A horror. Read Full Review
Fascinating backstory and history are revealed, but dangers attack in the present, dealing a horrible blow to one hero. This is a fantastic saga of the devil's continual battle to consume the world. The characters are heroic and engaging, the visuals are beautiful and horrific, the colors wonderful, and the lettering perfection. If this is Hell, give me more! Read Full Review
Pestilence continues to be a pretty fun book for something that's all about Satan orchestrating events to bring his side into the earthly world. The stories are well told here once again with Isabel really shining well in telling her tale before everything turns bad for the group. I love Okunev's artwork throughout it as it just has such a richness to it with the details and what Schwager brings to it with the color design. It's brutal and violent at times and Tieri doesn't avoid playing with the vulgarity of the men of this time and how they'd talk. It's definitely an intriguing book. Read Full Review
A good installment in the series. The story is rather simple and straightforward but it is pivotal and action-packed when it counts. Read Full Review
