SYNOPSIS:
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 & 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, & even time to his will. Earth is about to meet a new god; and he's a communist.How long can it be before the first confrontation between mankind and DIVINITY begins?******************************************
COLLECTOR'S NOTES:
In October of 2015, I had witer Matt Kindt sign my copy of this book at NYCC, and it was submitted to CGC for grading unlimatly recieving a grade of 9.6 (presently the highest graded CGC Signature Series copy of this book). I contacted Ed Guthrie who is a well known collector in his own right, who made this copy availible to me as part of a trade. I am presently working to obtain a Signature Series copy of this book in the near future. LaRosa's character design art for Divinity #1 (Design Variant Cover) is pictured below.
