Featuring a new entry point into Jonathan Hickman’s interconnected sci-fi setting, this oversized debut is one of the most intriguing indie launches of the week and a must-watch for fans of high-concept world-building.

Explore the beginnings of the 3 Worlds/3 Moons Universe in this stunning prestige format comic book written by Jonathan Hickman, with art and colors by Mike del Mundo!

Set generations before the current science cycle, in a time when magic is at its peak and Kaoso is thriving, Syg the White Hart eschews the wishes of his family and the will of the Academy, by hitching a ride on a Vojoganto to the center of the universe — Akva — to understand the cause behind what he believes to be the inevitable collapse of the universe as he knows it. Accompanied by his lifelong friend, an accused heretic named Markus, the two set out to unlock the secrets of life and stop the worlds’ collapse.

At the same time, there are forces set out to bring about the inevitable change and reawaken the God Machine of Ordo, thereby kickstarting the beginning of the next science cycle and the downfall of magic. Will Syg and Markus be able to complete their mission, or will their time be cut short by the next cosmic shift?
