LAUNCH OF PREVIEW BOOK & ISSUE # 1 OF “TITANS” BY UNDERGROUND COMIX
INDIANAPOLIS, IN, JANUARY 20, 2012

Underground Comix is proud to announce the impending launch of the comic book “TITANS” preview book and issue number one in Spring/Summer 2012. The preview book is in the process of being put together and will be made available in mid-April /early May 2012. The preview book will be sent out to those on the Underground Comix mailing list and will be given away at the Underground Comix presentations at both the Ash Comic Con & Kokomo Con in spring/summer of this year.

TITANS is an upcoming 2012 mythological/fantasy-action comic book written and created by new indie comic writer Johnny Mack. The project was previously named Battle for the Thrown before being officially named TITANS and is a re-imagining and “re-mixes” of stories from Greek, Norse and Egyptian mythology to tell the overall story of the impending retirement of God and the ensuing battle over who will become the next “Supreme” ruler.


PLOT SUMMARY

Years after the second Titanomachy, the heroes, demi-gods, gods and goddesses of the Greek pantheon live in relative obscurity in a realm parallel to the modern world known as the “Gleaming”. Their powers already weakened from their lack of worshipers, Zeus and the other Olympian gods are all but forgotten.

However, God the Supreme ruler has decided that mankind has grown in leaps and bounds to be a kinder, fairer, gentler race, although still plagued with some issues; God has decided that he is ready to retire from his job as supreme ruler. With the position needing to be filled, God decides to open the position up to the other gods. Using, Hermes, Ceryx, Pygor and Idris as heralds to summon the Olympians to the Grand Hall, God explains that he is going into slumber and that his seat as supreme ruler is up for grabs, only thing is that the gods must battle for the thrown with the last one standing crowned as the new supreme ruler. As the battle begins, gods and heroes from other pantheons join in for the chance at the thrown.

Further information about the comic book will be announced as the date to completion of the preview book and the Ash/Kokomo Comic Cons approach.
