Valiant has released a first look at Divinity #1, a new new, prestige format limited series from writer Matt Kindt (The Valiant, Mind MGMT) and artist Trevor Hairsine (X-Men: Deadly Genesis). The four issue series is part of the Valiant Next initiative, and will introduce Valiant’s first major new character since the publisher reentered the comic book market.
Here’s the plot for the series, provided by Valiant:
At the height of the Cold War, the Soviet Union – determined to win the Space Race at any cost – green lit a dangerously advanced mission. They sent a man farther into the cosmos than anyone has gone before or since. Lost in the stars, he encountered something unknown. Something that…changed him.
Long thought lost and erased from the history books, he has suddenly returned, crash-landing in the Australian Outback. The few that have been able to reach him believe him to be a deity – one who turned the scorched desert into a lush oasis. They say he can bend matter, space, and even time to his will. Earth is about to meet a new god. And he’s a communist.
Divinity #1 goes on sale February 11.
