About the series
In this brief two-issue series from Image Comics, Rex Mundi reimagines a world where the Knights Templar survived the 14th century and now secretly rule a modern Europe steeped in occult mystery. Written and drawn by an unnamed creative team, the story follows a historian drawn into a dangerous conspiracy surrounding a stolen artifact that could shake the foundations of this hidden theocratic order. Though its run was cut short, the series is notable for its dense, atmospheric world-building and its early exploration of alternative history and religious intrigue in the comics medium.
