About the series
A single-issue 2010 Image Comics one-shot, Red Mass for Mars presents a self-contained, apocalyptic narrative. The story follows a dying, godlike alien who crash-lands on Earth, granting a desperate priest the power to perform one final miracle—a mass that could save or doom humanity. This ambitious, standalone story from writer Jonathan Hickman and artist Ryan Bodenheim is a compact, philosophical exploration of faith, sacrifice, and the end of the world, notable for its striking visual design and dense, mythic scope.
