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.</p><p>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; & he’s a communist.</p><p>How long can it be before the first confrontation between mankind & DIVINITY begins?</p><p style="text-align: center;">******************************************</p><p><span style="color: red;"><strong>COLLECTOR'S NOTES:</strong> </span><br />While building this set, it was clear that a CGC Sketch (ideally graded 9.8+) would be vital to achieving the most competitive set possible.</p><p>I also own a (Universal) CGC 9.8 copy that covered as a temporary placeholder, so I contacted my friend & art-dealer <a href="http://tinyurl.com/h7ka5qw" target="_blank">"Sonic" Dan Moler</a> who represents Adam Gorham for commissions & art sales. I own Adam's original cover art for <em><strong>Dead Drop </strong></em><strong>#1 (Cover B)</strong>, so the relationship was already in-place.</p><p>Adam agreed to the project, & Doug Peters from ComicSketchArt facilitated everything else. Series writer Matt Kindt signed directly under Adam's artwork, which enhances this solid presentation. The result was a fantastic addition to this set, & also my collection.</p><p>Early in 2016 it was announced that Adam would create a cover for each issue of <em><strong>Divinity II</strong></em>. Adam's original cover art for <strong><em>Divinity II</em> #1</strong> is pictured below (courtesy of Sonic Dan).</p><p><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="http://tinyurl.com/h63y42k" alt="Divinity II #1" width="200" height="308" /></p>
