Valiant has sent out an early first look at their big summer event, Book Of Death. The first issue is 40 pages written by Robert Venditti and drawn by Robert Gill and Doug Braithwaite. Featured in the series are X-O Manowar, Bloodshot, Ninjak, The Harbinger Renegades and Unity.

Now we know. The Book of the Geomancer has recorded it all. But only a young girl – the last in a line of the enigmatic mystics who protect the Earth known as Geomancers – has seen this future come to pass, from the coming cataclysm to the dawn of the 41st century. Alone with her sworn protector, the Eternal Warrior – a soldier battle-forged across five thousand years of combat – the duo must defy their allies to stop the Dark Age that now threatens to eclipse our world.

Together, they are the number one target of every hero and villain on Earth. Either the Eternal Warrior hands her over…or they take him down. But can even he single-handedly protect one child when the entire Valiant Universe wages war against him?
