Continuing to explore the unholy alliance that has long existed between the worlds of heavy metal music and fantasy comics, multi-media phenomenon Eternal Descent returns with the second volume of the much-heralded comic saga.

Set for release in six parts from October 2011 by IDW Publishing and available worldwide through Diamond Distribution, Eternal Descent Volume 2 opens with the dramatic conclusion to the previous volume, setting the stage for a new beginning as the Eternal Descent universe continues to expand.

With the fallen Sirian consigned to his fate and Lyra consumed by her inner demons, Loki’s designs draw near their terrible conclusion. In this darkest hour Gus G (Ozzy Osbourne, Firewind) returns to Eternal Descent, offering a glimmer of hope for our heroes. Can Gus G and his unlikely guide rescue Sirian in time to halt the dire machinations of the Damned?

Written by British Eternal Descent creator Llexi Leon and American animation veteran Shaun Mclaughlin, with cover artwork from Santi Casas, Jason Metcalf and Billy Tucci, Volume 2 will also feature a brand-new 4page back-up story in every issue, where a reluctant hero with a dark gift takes his own brand of justice to the streets.
