22 September 2009 (Berkeley, CA) - This December, POWERS and MICE TEMPLAR co-creator Michael Avon Oeming, his SIX collaborator Dan Berman, and newcomer John Brogila reveal our world's true power remains with our ancient gods when one of their own discovers his GOD COMPLEX!"In GOD COMPLEX, the Greek Pantheon has survived the centuries, transforming themselves from powerful Gods of the sky to influential men and women of the Earth," Oeming said. "Some of them live normal lives, some run big business, and even more are superheroes. It's an extremely complex world and after hundreds of years of life on Earth, not all the gods are happy about it."
GOD COMPLEX' Apollo has hung up his superhero cape and now lives in hiding from his fellow gods as a mortal named Paul. Yet the Pantheon are so eager to get him back in their ranks they'll do whatever it takes to win him back - even against his will! For Paul, life as a mortal has just gotten... complex.
GOD COMPLEX #1, a 32-page full color comic book for $2.99, will be in-stores December, 2 2009.
Ed. Note: I have no idea if this expands the "United Image" universe, nor how it fits-in; that's why they're doing it, of course: to define the United universe. This sounds like an entirely separate universe of the creators' own, though it may one day be annexed onto the United universe. I think the Image Universe is going to be the original creations by the founders, excepting Maxx and W.I.L.D.Cats (which is now Wildstorm and published by DC, I think) - the "first wave" - Pitt, Spawn, Savage Dragon, Deathblow, Union, et.al.
