Warning: The Last God is a MATURE DC Black Label Comic

The story of The Last God is off and running in two different time periods. With the decades-old champions walking into an absolute nightmare, and the last hope for Cain Anuun seemingly vanquished, our preview reveals not all is lost. But from the looks of it, the path to victory might end up being the bloodiest.

In the present Age of Tyrgolad, the Godslayer King Tyr was the first to fall to the return of the Plague of Flowers. Queen Cyanthe was pulled from the capital city by Veikko al Mun, one of her fellow champions who believed they had killed The Last God, and Eyvindr, the slave gladiator who just found out he triggered the foretold return of Mol Uhltep. But as the trio begin their march back to the Black Stair, the Plague of Flowers has sundered them already. The fate of Eyvindr will have to wait, since our exclusive preview of The Last God #4 begins in the past – when Tyr, Cyanthe, and Veikko made their way to the Pinnacle for the first time.

When last readers left the fellowship, they were falling into total ruin. Interrupted at the Pinnacle by the full power of Mol Uhltep’s spreading influence, a rising army of the dead exploded into a massive dragon. While promising Cyanthe that her destruction was inevitable, The Last God also tossed Eyvindr aside to his death. But in these official preview pages, it appears Veikko may see more potential in the young warrior than his queen. But it may not matter, if The Last God’s plan to corrupt Cyanthe succeeds.

Either way, the horrors awaiting Tyr in the Pinnacle are absolutely beautiful (in the most brutal way imaginable). Take a look at the pages below:

There seems to be more to the blade slammed through Veikko and Eyvindr’s hands than a sturdy grip, considering the blade glowing in the heada of Mol Uhltep’s dragon-like wraith. But to see this magic revealed in all its glory – and just what Tyr, Cyanthe, and Veikko found in the Pinnacle – will have to wait until the full issue is released. Until then, readers can find the full solicitations details and plot synopsis for the issue below:
