JOHN CARPENTERS ASYLUM (2013)

"There's a war coming to the City of Angels. In tunnels beneath the city, in the dark alleys among the homeless, demons lurk and Lucifer bides his time. One man knows. One man sees. One man walks those dark streets. Father Daniel Beckett's seen demons and he's spoken to the Devil, but he's never seen an angel and he's never spoken to God. Obsessed and driven as much by betrayal as righteousness and anger as redemption, he walks the smoke-filled encampments of lost souls like Dante's nine rings of the Inferno. He is God's warrior at war with God."

"Created by John Carpenter, Thomas Ian Griffith and Sandy King. Detective Duran and ex-communicated Beckett continue to butt heads while hot on the heels of the LA's newest and flashiest serial killer. They soon discover there is more to the Angel Killer than once presumed."

"Beckett and the Angel Killer have a sit down in which he learns that these killings are the first piece of a much larger puzzle. Duran risks his life to save his partner."

"Duran's world implodes as he struggles to come to terms with the events of the previous issue. Additionally, his already shaky partnership with Beckett takes a turn for the worse..."

"A game of cat and mouse with a body-jumping demon leads Duran and Beckett toward madness and death."

"The concluding chapter of Asylum's first arc. Duran and Beckett learn that the demon they are chasing is merely a pawn in the Devil's assault on Earth. No matter what they do, the end of days is coming and it's coming fast. Duran has to fight the forces of darkness from within while Beckett comes to some startling conclusions about his own direct purpose on this world. Los Angeles is falling and, when it does, nothing will be quite the same ever again "

"Part one of a two-parter featuring King Leo as he tracks down the soul of a man lost in the Barrens. King Leo loses himself along the way and finds it harder to get back to his mortal body. What he discovers on the other side, however, is much worse than what he'd been witness to in our world. Duran and Beckett have disappeared and it will take all of King Leo's power to track them down and save this lost soul."

"The concluding chapter in the two-part 'The Barrens' storyline. King Leo has finally found the item he had been searching for. However, leaving this dimension will not be easy as he is forced to confront the denizens of this plane. During the massive battle, he discovers a demonic priest gathering souls for a greater darker purpose. With no time to spare, King Leo is forced to make a difficult decision, one that will forever change the state of our living world forever."

"A peaceful, small town is ripped asunder as its children go missing and many are found wandering disoriented or dead. Someone - or something - is hunting them down one by one. Coming to a place where trust in anyone is non-existent and faith in a solution is fading fast, Beckett and Duran must team up with one victim's brother to track down the monster hunting the children and discover who's pulling his strings in part one of 'Welcome to Arlington.'"

"Beckett and Duran utilize Duran's gift for discernment to track down the person (or persons) responsible for Arlington's missing children. Another victim puts the city on lockdown with curfew in full effect as the police patrol the town streets twenty-four hours a day. Meanwhile, a new player has entered the fray, looking for her prey: a true innocent."

"Becket and Duran have cornered the 'Monster in the Woods' only to discover everything they thought they knew about him was wrong. Beckett and Duran readjust their tactics in order to stop this child killer permanently. They also find themselves piecing together new clues in order to thwart Liliths endgame. Elsewhere: King Leo finally makes it back to our reality with the soul of Father Leone in tow-though perhaps in an altered state from when he left this mortal coil. "

"Like the layers of an onion left to rot, the mystery of Arlington's lost children has peeled away its layers to reveal a bigger threat at its core. An ancient demon has been at work for decades only to be revealed when Beckett and Duran arrived in town. What was hinted at in Los Angeles is coming to fruition in this small midwestern town. King Leo has returned from the Barrens with new insights-and an adviser. Beckett and Duran are locked in a fight that challenges their new found abilities. Unless they succeed, all roads might lead to ruin. On a big, big scale."

"The penultimate issue of Asylum's 'Welcome to Arlington' arc! King Leo has returned from 'The Barrens' with a powerful ally in tow. But why does the future of humanity lie within the hands of a single boy? It won't matter so long as Beckett and Duran stay locked in battle with their own tortured souls. Skrim pulls out all the stops to see Lilith's plan unfold "

"Streets flow with rivers of fire and skies are filled with demons. In this, the final issue in the second arc of John Carpenter's Asylum, God is dead. The Anti-Christ is near, and Beckett, the fallen angel, is humanity's last hope."
