Undertaker #1 [Death Chrome Cover]

Apr 1999 · Chaos! Comics · [none]
“Prophecy of the Dead”

"Prophecy of the Dead" kicks off a grim, high-stakes hunt in Undertaker #1, where the Undertaker and the Embalmer race to claim the three Books of Death—each a key to ultimate power. With the demon Mezzmor unleashed under Paul Bearer’s command, the battle for control begins in a story written by Beau Smith and Matt Brady, illustrated by Manny Clark and inked by Sandu Florea, with colors by Jason Jensen and letters by Comicraft’s Oscar Gongora. The chilling cover by Jurgens and Ordway sets the tone for a tale where death itself is a weapon.
