Story and art by Adam Steadman. This series, based around the adventures of the avenging religious hero the Anticipator, is set against an America under martial law where 350 million men, women and children have mysteriously disappeared over night. Alien abduction? Super plague? That may be what the Government (note the paranoid capital G) wants you to believe, but the truth is that these poor souls have been abducted by God—brought to Heaven in anticipation of Armageddon to follow in the wake of the arrival of Satan. Government agents roam the streets enforcing the will of the president and marking law-breakers with C.I.N. numbers—the Citizen Identification Network. The Anticipator is the sole (soul?) force standing between the four horsemen of the apocalypse and the innocents hes vowed to protect. Cover price $2.25.
