Part One

4. The Wicked + The Divine

“Every ninety years, twelve gods incarnate as humans. They are loved. They are hated. In two years, they are dead.” But in those two years, The Pantheon live as royalty…in a sense. They’re pop stars, complete with hoards of fans that follow their every move. As the story progresses, a series of deaths, secrets, and betrayals throw The Pantheon’s world into disarray. Wic+Div is not only excellent fantasy, but it’s a smart breakdown of celebrity culture. And Jamie McKelvie’s art is simply stunning.
