About the series
In 2001, Image Comics launched Violent Messiahs: Genesis, a single-issue series that serves as a prequel to the main Violent Messiahs storyline. Written by Joshua Hale Fialkov and illustrated by Tone Rodriguez, this issue delves into the origins of the masked vigilante known as the Violent Messiah, exploring the brutal events that set him on his path. Though brief, it lays crucial groundwork for the larger narrative, establishing the gritty, morally complex tone that defines the series.
