Chris Claremont/Michael Ryan/Don Hillsman
Can a former Celestial survive in a world gone mad?
She gave up godhood, having grown too close to humanity during her dealings with the mortal heroes who had been trapped in the imaginary universe. And as a result, that universe was left in her care. Ashema became its pillar, supporting the world through the power of her belief in its reality. But now something has gone wrong. Some malevolent force reaches out, determined to take her charge for its own, twisting and corrupting the very fabric of the land she seeks to protect. And she finds herself vulnerable. Hunted. Human. She needs a knight to do battle in her stead, one that can stand against the great powers of the Universe and emerge triumphant. There is such a man... but Ashema will find that the cure may prove far more deadly than the disease...

What happens when all of your world's heroes just pick up and leave your "Pocket Universe?" Simple... you make new ones. But what if no one's around to teach them the job? Simple...you get Remnants.
Part comedy, part crazy action, REMNANTS follows the adventures of a handful of novice heroes trying to get by in a world that berates and jeers at them. Led by the punctual (and pint-sized) Mant, the Remnants reflect the best and the weirdest that the Heroes Reborn universe has to offer: The noble but knee-high Panther Cub, the innocent yet buxom Super-Maxi Big Girl, the ignoble cosmic gnome Sterling, and the savagely hypersensitive Miss Thing. Our ragtag team of leftovers must make a name for themselves against a villain so dangerous, so diabolical, that his name can only be whispered... Well, that's not entirely true, but he is their mentor gone wrong, and his singing voice really reeeally stinks. His super-secret identity is just one of the many surprises you'll find crammed within the pages of a book built on the premise that nothing is sacred... especially not itself! ?

How do super-villains interact when there are no heroes to oppose them? Find out in a moody crime noir tale. ?
Enter the new Chicago... a city that has responded to the tumultuous world around it by letting the criminals run the show. Chicago is their town. But it's not enough. In a tale of back-stabbing ambition and darkly comedic twists and turns, the Black Knight and his criminal cadre set plans into motion that will ensure them a prominent position in the new world order alongside its "savior," Doctor Doom. Can this small cast of crooks, lowlifes and con-men truly become masters of evil? ?

Out of the wasteland walks a new hero in this western/super hero hybrid that shoots from the hip and walks tall. ?
The world has gone horribly wrong. A waking nightmare where a totalitarian despot rules a devastated countryside. Where mutated animals walk like men... and enslaved humanity crawls to avoid its master's whip. This is a world where justice fell into the sea with the California coastline, and hope is blanketed in the pea-green mist that darkens the sky. A world in desperate need of a hero... a Rebel. Populated with characters both familiar and shocking, this book challenges expectations of mainstream super hero comics, and establishes a new breed of hero for the Marvel Universe. Expect a unique band of freedom fighters forging their own Trail of Tears through a gamma-irradiated desert the best way they can. No excuses asked for, none given. Expect the worst mankind has to offer bubbling to the surface of America, and spilling out over the godforsaken west. Expect a reluctant hero of a different breed. A man with the power to blaze his own trail, but just a man nonetheless. ?
