Synopsis

There's no one left to protect us from what lurks in the dark. There's no Hellboy, no Mulder and Scully, no Torchwood or Men in Black coming to save us. The monsters have won.

Our world now belongs to them.

The Vatican's last line of paranormal defence - The Congregation - has finally been overrun by the supernatural forces of darkness. Our heroes are all dead; only the damned remain. Among them is Alberic Van Helsing - addict, murderer, survivor - and the creatures that were once his prey now hunt him across America. But when an apocalyptic evil is resurrected in the forests of Norway, it falls to Van Helsing to become the hunter once again if mankind and monster alike are to see the dawn.

Van Helsing's quest for salvation and survival takes him through the ruins of a neo-gothic Europe, where he must face the vampire queen of the Vatican, a man-made monster with the heart of a storm, the lycanthropic lord of the forest, the mummified ruler of the slums of Cairo, and the crazed vampire demi-god who threatens to devour them all.

Revue de presse

"New metal-slanted and cameo-stacked comic Realm of the Damned has us nerding out like maniacs." --Metal Hammer

"With Parr's gruesome and gory visuals and Worley's in-your-face script, Realm of the Damned is definitely the comic that your mother warned you about!" --Down the Tubes

"Does for vampires what The Walking Dead did for zombies. Worley and Pye fling you into a nerve-shredding apocalyptic world of blood and darkness. Like having your head between the speakers at a death metal gig, in a good way - sensory overload, hallucinatory, adrenaline-fuelled." --Mark Chadbourn, author of The Devil's Looking Glass, Hellboy, Doctor Who

"There&aspos;s some more gorgeous attention to detail in the art." --Everything Comes Back to 200AD

"Parr's art is spot on and fairly brutal, and Alex's script though vicious also has the perfect vein of dark humour oozing within to keep a smart smirk across you face throughout." --Flickering Myth

"From someone who reads a lot of comics, this is well worth a read and I enjoyed it from beginning to end. The artwork is superb - coming from a man who's had his work on the cover of 2000AD on numerous occasions, this is hardly surprising." --The Moshville Times

"This raw tale from writer Alec Worley is brutal, gothic and unrelenting. The art from Pye Parr is stunning... 8/10" --Vive Le Rock

"There&aspos;s some more gorgeous attention to detail in the art." --Everything Comes Back to 200AD

"Parr's art is spot on and fairly brutal, and Alex's script though vicious also has the perfect vein of dark humour oozing within to keep a smart smirk across you face throughout." --Flickering Myth
