Augustus

Born into the wild world of late-'90s Chaos! Comics, Augustus made his debut in the landmark Undertaker #1/2 (1999), a Steven Grant and Jerry Beck creation that dropped right at the height of comics' love affair with WWE crossover storytelling. With 15 catalog appearances spread across the Undertaker series and its preview titles — two of them recognized as collector-significant key issues — Augustus carved out a genuine niche in this short-lived but memorably intense corner of Modern Age comics. He shares his dark, atmospheric pages with an extraordinary cast including The Undertaker, Kane, Mankind, Paul Bearer, and The Embalmer, making every issue feel like a collision of wrestling mythology and gothic comic-book drama that only the late '90s could have conjured.
