7 Immortals may walk the Earth. Never an eighth. Otherwise, an ancient prophecy calls for a final war between the spirits of life and death. Seven immortals walk the earth, never can there roam an eighth. This prophecy has defined the millennia-long life of Curipan, who possesses the world-saving power to unmake immortals. Haunted by the lives she has stolen, Curipan struggles to make sense of a reality defined by trauma and loss. But when her burden becomes more than she can bear, Curipan seeks to reclaim her forgotten humanity and finds herself caught in the middle of a primordial war between the spirits of life and death.

The Eighth Immortal

Tom Gilliland

From the highly creative teams of Sideshow Collectibles and Insight Comics comes the next graphic novel installment of the Court of the Dead universe: Shadows of the Underworld! Before the Underworld can rise up and end the war between heaven and hell, they must first defeat the darkness within themselves: The Dreadsgrip. The power reaped from mortal souls comes at a significant cost. Any reapers that siphon too much ethereal power from the harvest may lose themselves to the Dreadsgrip, an irresistible thirst to destroy. Now, a rogue agent in Death’s Underworld is stoking a mutiny, fueled by the terrible Dreadsgrip plague that affects all denizens of the Underworld—a plague that could derail the leader of the Underworld, the Alltaker’s plans to rise up against the celestial powers of both heaven and hell. With this growing curse reverberating throughout the Alltaker's kingdom, Death’s impulsive daughter Kier must join forces with the Queen’s intractable right hand, Exraile, to root out and destroy this danger to the land between. These mighty warriors, caught in the midst of a celestial war, will need more than just their swords to slice through the Shadows of the Underworld.
