The darker things hanging around in Grant Morrison’s shadow come circling back around for this series, including a rather clever way to reconcile disparate mythological ideas that stem from occult sources, the Mahabharata, pseudo-astrology, and more Qliphothic fun. Of course, it’s much, much more than that, but telling what happens when things inevitably go wrong, as they always do in space horror, would spoil the fun. In short, it’s creepy space horror in the vein of something like Event Horizon, but as filtered through the depth of Morrison’s knowledge of mythology and the occult. Ostensibly, this is about an occult expert, a man with no name, who is hired to help solve the problem of an asteroid hurtling towards Earth by decoding ancient glyphs and the language of angels.
