(W) Robert Venditti (A) Trevor Hairsine (CA) Alex Maleev New York Times bestselling writer Robert Venditti (SUPERMAN ‘87, PLANET DEATH) and powerhouse artist Trevor Hairsine (DCEASED, X-MEN) light the fuse to the explosive finale of their no-holds-barred, action spectacle. Betrayed by the men he thought he could trust, Father Roy is left bloodied and grieving the innocents caught in the crossfire of an attempted hit. Now, he’s on the hunt for the one man who can put an end to the bloodshed–and the one soul he’s desperate to save, Cormac Byrne. But Byrne has no intention of being saved. Instead, he unleashes his most lethal asset–the ruthless, blue-collar butcher known only as THE MACHINE.
