Devi #5

Nov 2006 · Virgin · 2.99 USD
“Aagaman”

In "Aagaman," the final chapter of Devi's origin, Tara's transformation into a divine being accelerates as the gods intervene, thrusting her toward an irrevocable destiny. At a crumbling temple, warriors of light and dark converge, each with deadly intent, while only a disillusioned policeman and a former priest stand between her and oblivion. Written by Samit Basu and illustrated with striking intensity by Mukesh Singh—whose inks and colors shape the story’s haunting tone—this pivotal issue closes a mythic arc with a question that lingers: what does it mean to be saved when becoming a goddess might be the truest form of destruction? The cover by Aditya Chari and Suresh Seetharaman captures the weight of that moment in bold, evocative strokes.

The gods unite to bless Tara and send her hurtling irrevocably towards divinity. Meanwhile, with murder on their minds, the warriors of the light and dark assemble at a ruined temple where the Devi-to-be lies trance-bound. Only two people want Tara to live: a failed policeman, and a lapsed priest. Can they save her in spite of the overwhelming odds? And does a goddess need or want to be saved?
