“Auferstehung”

"Auferstehung" delivers a gripping, high-stakes opener in the Countdown Monster Edition series, with Keith Giffen and Christian Heiß leading a bold team-up of DC’s elite as the Four Horsemen prepare their assault on Oolong Island. Pat Olliffe’s dynamic art, enhanced by John Stanisci’s inks and Hi-Fi’s vivid colors, brings to life the moment Superman hurls an iceberg at the Horsemen’s lair—only for them to rise anew, unharmed. Wonder Woman’s sudden transport to the island as Azraeuz’s walking dead advance sets a chilling tone, while Ethan Van Sciver’s intense cover captures the chaos in bold, striking detail.
