THE NEXT CHAPTER OF THE UNRELENTING PROTO-AFRICAN FANTASY EPIC ROARS ONWARD!

Acclaimed creators Murewa Ayodele and Dotun Akande, the writer-artist team behind I Am Iron Man and Moon Knight: Black, White & Blood, continue their utterly distinctive, dark fantasy epic as AKOGUN seeks to avenge the savage butchering of his betrothed, parents, and entire village.

In the heavens, a battle rages between OGUN (the god of metal) and SANGO (the god of lightning) for the title of WAR GOD.

Armies will be cut down. Godblood will be spilled. For this is the promise of AKOGUN: BRUTALIZER OF GODS!

    This book is great, plain and simple. The story and art blend together in a way that few creative teams can achieve. With each issue of this story I have become more and more intrigued and I have found a curiosity for the folklore and mythology of this region that I have never had before. This truly is God of War meets Conan the Barbarian! Read Full Review
