Survive the battle arena May 2024!
Eric Powell (The Goon, Four Gathered on Christmas Eve) and comedian and actor Lucky Yates (Archer, Good Eats, Exploding Kittens) have combined their twisted comedic talents in a new comic miniseries, Lester of the Lesser Gods! Originally created as an unproduced animated short by Powell a decade ago, Lester has been reborn with award-winning artist Gideon Kendall (MegaGhost, Marley’s Ghost) illustrating and lettering the series. Lester of the Lesser Gods #1 will also feature a special variant cover illustrated by Powell.
Lester, the LARPing bastard son of Odin, wanders the post-apocalyptic wasteland after thwarting Satan’s attempt to bring about the end of days. But can this hero of the downtrodden survive the battle arena of Will Frye the Technomancer Guy?
Lester of the Lesser Gods #1 (of 3) finds his way into comic shops on May 22, 2024. Pre-order now for $3.99 at your local comic shop.
