Synopsis

“solid storytelling and clean, gorgeous artwork will keep readers engrossed and eager for more.” - Publishers Weekly (Starred)

"Gillen's penchant for fast, sharp dialogue and McKelvie and Wilson's razor-lined, intensely colored visuals keep things popping up to the cliffhanger ending." - Booklist

“the story is beautifully drawn and populated with characters of color, diverse gender, and sexual identities, and you have my full undivided attention.” -- Kirkus

Every ninety years, twelve gods incarnate as humans. They are loved. They are hated. In two years, they are dead. The team behind critically thermonuclear floor-fillers Young Avengers and Phonogram reunite to start a new, ongoing, superhero fantasy with a beautiful, oversized issue. Welcome to The Wicked + The Divine, where gods are the ultimate pop stars and pop stars are the ultimate gods. But remember: just because you're immortal, doesn't mean you're going to live forever.

À propos des auteurs

Kieron Gillen first came to attention as a comic creator with his 2006's Phonogram, with Jamie McKelvie. Jamie and he formed into a gestalt monster that rampaged against the next fifteen years of comics, culminating with critical and smash hit The Wicked + the Divine. When not with Jamie, he has co-created books such as DIE, The Ludocrats, Once & Future, Three, Uber and more. When not making his own worlds, he has worked on Marvel Comics biggest books, such as Uncanny X-men, Young Avengers, Thor, Iron Man, Star Wars, Eternals and Darth Vader, (where he co-created Doctor Aphra). His hobbies include pop culture, talking about pop culture, redefining what "pop culture" means in any given conversation and putting off updating his bio as long as possible.

Jamie McKelvie is an artist and writer mostly known for his work with Kieron Gillen on comics such as The Wicked + The Divine, Young Avengers and Phonogram. He is also known for his influential character design work, especially at Marvel Comics, where he designed Captain Marvel, Ms Marvel, Loki and many of the Young Avengers.

Outside of comics, he regularly provides artwork for the band Chvrches, and has also worked with Art Brut and Tegan and Sara. He is currently working on his first solo book in over a decade, The Killing Horizon.
