Deicide #1 : Path of the Dead

Los heresiarcas #1-2

by Carlos Portela, Das Pastoras (Illustrator)

In a world where tribal villagers pay bloody sacrifices to a seemingly never-ending pantheon of both good and evil gods, DEICIDE tells the story of a man who rejects the gods. Angered by the unnecessary sacrifice of his love, Aldara, to the hideous god Madorak, Agon sets out on a journey to reclaim her soul. Along the way, Agon is aided (and sometimes hindered) by Beluch, a lion-headed man with problems of his own. Lushly painted with fine detail, this stunning book is a tour de force by two of Spain's premiere graphic novelists.
This trade paperback collection features a unique and raucous mix of action and humor from the first two chapters of the DEICIDE adventure, as well as THE LION'S SHARE, the short story that introduced the earliest incarnation of the DEICIDE characters in the first issue of METAL HURLANT MAGAZINE.
