Beyond the edge of creation lies the Black Stair. And beyond it, amid the void, he waits. Mol Uhltep, the Last God. This is the tale of those who claimed to slay him, and the world they doomed with their lies.
As the horrifying forces of the Last God descend upon the city of Tyrgolad, our intrepid heroes-Queen Cyanthe, Eyvindr, and Veikko al Mun-must either defend or escape their crumbling stronghold and contend with dark legacy left behind in King Tyr's wake. But with every second, the undead army of the Last God adds more bodies to their numbers. None are safe.
In the past, we witness the tragic and violent beginnings of the first

Dec 02, 2019Philip Kennedy Johnson has written one hell of an original book. This is fantasy at it's best. The art makes the whole package complete and completely elevates the story. This is an underrated gem. Read Full Review

Dec 03, 2019Despite undertaking some serious narrative weight, The Last God #2 finds its stride as a complex and expansive horror-based fantasy epic that you can really sink your teeth into. Read Full Review

Geek Dad - Ray Goldfield
Nov 27, 2019I wouldn't want to be anyone doing a high fantasy comic right now, given how spectacular the Jason Aaron Conan the Barbarian run is, but Last God #2, an original tale from Phillip Kennedy Johnson and Riccardo Federici has done enough to distinguish itself in two issues with a fascinating tale of betrayal and monsters.

Beyond The Panel - Jideobi Odunze
Nov 27, 2019DC's dark fantasy epic hits a good stride through the events of The Last God #2. This was the best time to begin setting a pace for a story which takes place between two points in time. I'm glad that there is also a strong transition between the two which doesn't lose you along the way. There's madness in the present, but to understand that you must also know what happened in the past. Read Full Review

But Why Tho? - Aaron Phillips
Nov 27, 2019The Last God#2 shows great promise and has some stunning visuals to back it up. Ultimately though the follow up to the premier issue delivered an unclear message as it attempts to tackle too many things at once. Read Full Review

I was dubious about the first issue but this really made up for it and now I'm excited for what comes next.

A little harder to follow than issue 1, but still very well written and the art is just incredible.

Art holds up as top notch from the first issue. It's a perfect fit for this style of story, and I love seeing the un-dead creatures every time they come on panel. The names and places become difficult to manage, and I had hoped some of that might be easier after the busy first issue. For that, I think I can't fully engage with the story as much as I would hope. On the other hand, it is very comparable to any number of high fantasy novels, so I know I will get back on board with the story as we go further. This issue sets up some of the connections between characters a little better, and I feel like next issue will progress the story in some really interesting directions. I also appreciate the prose segment at the back and another song. more

So like the art is really cool, but there's so much world build and so many characters and so much happening that it's almost too much, I wish this would maybe just slow down a bit.

I have no idea who any of these people are. The best thing about this issue was Torma's death. Not much else here for me besides that glimmer of horror.
