"I've always admired D.J. Kirkbride's mind, and it's put to brilliant use in collaboration with the wonderfully energetic and unique artwork of Vassilis Gogtzilas. I eat this stuff up. Bigger bangin' cosmic comics!"
— Michael Allred
(MADMAN, SILVER SURFER)
The Big Bang created all life as we know it. THE BIGGER BANG creates just one: a being named Cosmos. Is he a destroyer? A hero? A god? All he knows is that he's completely alone in what was our universe... so he seeks out another where he'll try to atone for the sins of his mysterious creation. Written by D.J. Kirkbride and illustrated by Vassilis Gogtzilas.
