Issue four will be the thrilling conclusion to the God of War comic series, giving a fitting end to the tumultuous journey of Kratos and Atreus. With a new foe and secrets swiftly unraveling, the end is near for the fight against a formidable enemy.

"The God of War comic series finds Kratos living in the remote Norse Wilds after his war on the gods of Olympus," Dark Horse Comics tells us. "Seeking to put the rage that defined most of his life behind him, Kratos inadvertently sparks a feud with a mysterious cult of berserkers after attempting to save a stranger being mauled by a monstrous bear. But for the former Ghost of Sparta, no good deed goes unpunished."

The promising new adventure will be available to pre-order at major retailers such as Barnes & Noble, Amazon, and others. You can also scoop it up at your local comic shop as well!
