I just loved seeing her come together. Si did great work in conceptualizing and defining this abusive void of a parasite and then Jamie McKelvie came along to give another instant-classic Jamie McKelvie design (the negative space heart is some next-level stuff). Superhero comics are always in need of great new villains, so I was delighted to see her hit so hard, and delighted to get a chance to play with her. -- Kieron Gillen

Where’s Hellion right now? Well, the odds say he’s either in the White Hot Room or dead. If he was not in either of those places, we would’ve seen him, right? He would’ve been out there fighting Orchis very publicly. So he could be out in that desert in the White Hot Room trying to help make a society run with no resources. But the other option is he’s dead. And that’s a bummer. So let’s pretend he’s in the White Hot Room, and I know you want him to be on panel in the White Hot Room, but trust me, he’s like, just a little to the left and he’s doing very important things. He’s helping those crops grow with his telekinesis. -- Jordan White

50 years of Ghost Rider, so Marvel publishes a bumper issue, celebrating all the Ghost Riders over the years.

Except Alejandra. No-one seems to care for Alejandra.

Johnny Blaze gets some ink. I am surely confident that this change will stick with the character, yessir.

The apparent god overpowered the definite mortal.

Antonius' son, whom he'd come to save, knelt by his side.

" Avitus, I have not been th-he best of fathers, but know that- ugh- I've always loved you. "

" B-but.. f-father.. you told me.. you d-do not believe in the gods.

" So how can they kill you? "

Thoughts flashed in the mind of the Detectioner of Rome. He staggered to his feet.

" My son is right. " he told the approaching Apollo. " I do not believe in the gods. "

He dodged the swing of the sword the seeming god held.

" So how can you kill me?! "

( Apollo readied his sword arm again. )

He and the gladiator Achillia stood back-to-back, surrounded by some of the finest soldiers in the Roman army.

Above them, the emperor Nero (who'd called for their deaths) watched.

Achillia and Antonius fought, striking and being struck.

( Then Antonius turned around. )

He'd gone to the arena with his slave Bran.

He'd found a lead in his investigations, a gladiator's memento.

He watched the gladiator in question, Achillia, win another of her matches.

( He went down to confront her. )

thanekos

It's a four-issue mini, a sequel to Valiant's previous Britannia.

It opened some time before that'd ended, on a house in Rome.

A man drinking wine called for one of his slaves. She came, bearing a jug.

( He and his friend smiled eagerly. )

The issue began with Antonius Axia's life nearly ending.

Dispatched from Rome to investigate the goings-on up north, he who'd earned the name Detectioner was almost at the truth of things.

He'd been turning them over in his mind, in his tent, when the woman Bodmall came to him.

They embraced, her hands on his back.

Then her hands changed, against her will, and went for his neck.

( He held her off with his sword. )

Current Music: Recapture - Masashi Hamauzu

thanekos

Antonius Axia was remembering his service as a centurion.

His memories awoke his instincts; he blocked the sword raised against him with his own.

His attacker headbutted him and tried another swing.

" .. it's been years since I was a legionnaire. " thought Antonius.

" But that thing with time still happens. "

( He watched the blade drawn back. )

Current Music: The Shipwood - Masashi Hamauzu

thanekos

The Roman Antonius Axia, tasked by the Emperor Nero to investigate goings on in that place, was in the thick of them.

A monstrosity loomed before him on a field of gore.

Then it resolved into a more pleasing shape- the beckoning spirit of his dead wife.

( It was still what it was, though. )

Current Music: Melody of Shadow - Masashi Hamauzu

thanekos

It's written by Peter Milligan and drawn by Juan José Ryp.

It opens in Etrusca, on the chief of the Vestal Virgins and a centurion of the Italian First Legion.

She, Rubria, had a task for him, Antonius Axia- rescue one of hers from a local cult.

She put it to him unofficially, because it wouldn't do to lose face by asking for official help.

He took three legionnaires to face the cult.

There was the shedding of blood, and then him and the one he'd gone to save.

( There was red and green. )

Current Music: Ruins In The Forest - Masashi Hamauzu

Its cast's equal to its premise.

Its protagonist, uber-psiot (psychic) Toyo Harada, wants to change the world. He wages war with all he is and all he has to that end, against those that would oppose him.

One of those are the alien Vine, who have Earth marked out for themselves.

He struck the first blow against them. In response, they formed the Vine Planting Liberation Army.

( As acronyms go, it's certainly one. )

"This is the freedom of doing a piece of superhero fiction outside the auspices of company ownership or the weight of continuity: the big questions can be asked in a very direct and brutal manner." - Warren Ellis
