PREVIEW: The Wicked + The Divine #1

[CBR News]

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. But remember: just because you're immortal, doesn't mean you're going to live forever.

Really excited for this. McKelvie has always done great work, but he's in top form here.

[Stage3evolution]

Have this on my pull list to check out at least the first couple of issues. Looks promising and the art looks great.

[xMatt]

Yeah, pre-ordered already!

[Blacksun]

great preview!! I'm curious about this series, has a new and interesting premise.

[RoguishGurl]

Hmm, I may give this a shot. I do love me some Gillen and McKelvie.

[Sprite]

Looking to be a keeper on my pull list.

Me too. I didn't preorder it, but this is definitely getting me to try it out.

Need to pre-order to support! Just kidding, my retailers don't usually order many of the smaller titles.

"our mortal bodies are inhabited by immortal souls"

Huh.

[Chrysalis_Changling]

Gillen And Mckelvie's Young Avengers run kinda bored me...so I'm not so sure i should jump on board this series(especially since gillen's tastes and my tastes are so far apart it's insane)

[xMatt]

I imagine this will be more in line with "Phonogram" than "Young Avengers".

[thehumandivine]

Good Evening.

[armlessphelan]

This looks bloody fantastic, and has me wanting to check out Phonogram. So yeah.

[Chrysalis_Changling]

I imagine this will be more in line with "Phonogram" than "Young Avengers".

eh never read Phonogram so that doesn't exactly make me feel any better
