CutAwayComics Gods & Monsters Omega and Sutekh Book One

Available to order from www.cutawaycomics.co.uk

From the worlds of ancient mythology comes Omega Eltralla

The opening chapter of the new the Gods & Monsters series – Trapped in his black-hole prison, Omega is surprised to find an unexpected arrival: the Eltralla, a phantom colony ship. For Omega, this is a way out the black hole and a means to escape. For us, it will be the beginning of the end of the universe…

“Following our Omega series, I wanted to do something heroic with Omega. He rarely gets the chance to do more than rant and weep – he’s an engineer, a nobleman and a creator – time to explore some of these facets..” says Publisher Gareth Kavanagh.

Written by MARK GRIFFITHS (Omega mini series and audio, Spy Toys, Doctor Who: Self Made Man) with art by comics legend JOHN RIDGWAY (Omehga mini series, Hellblazer, Doctor Who: Voyager) this is a dramatic introduction to the Eltralla.

From the worlds of ancient mythology comes Sutekh The Heretic!

Rescued from oblivion, fallen God Sutekh the Destroyer leads an unlikely army of liberation to free a far flung galaxy from the clutches of evil demon Azag. But will the found adoration of billions of freed slaves be his undoing?

Publisher Gareth Kavanagh picks up the story: “It was an irresistible chance to introduce Sutekh, the Egyptian god of death into the narrative. The dramatic potential of a one-shot having him wreak havoc was ideal for Ian to get his teeth into. And then there’s the potential of pairing Sutekh and Omega against each other in future volumes… it’s going to be epic!”.

Written by IAN WINTERTON (Demon of Eden, the Ballad of Halo Jones stage adaptation) with art by ADRIAN SALMON and lettering by COLIN BROCKHURST. OMEGA & SUTEKH is presented as a full colour prestige format comic with extras and a VAM disc packed with goodies.
