Mini-Series Premiere. Finally, the one true origin story of the Violator, as told by the most unbelievable and unreliable narrator of all time. Follow the journey of your favorite demon from his start in the celestial heavens through his fall and descent into Hell, and finally, his banishment to Earth.

Six different points in history! Eisner-winning writer Marc Andreyko and a murderers' row of artists take you to Hell and back in this epic series!

The Violator, banished to Earth, has found himself face to face with the savage Viking Spawn of the era. He has only his wits and cunning to rely on if he is to survive the oncoming battle.

As a plague spreads across Europe, the Violator is enjoying the death and suffering of the human race. But soon he finds himself in the middle of a war between the forces of Heaven and a Hellspawn!

The Violator's story continues as his hatred for humanity grows. His rage seethes as he brings destruction and misery to everyone unlucky enough to cross his path.

The Violator has found himself slumming around Europe. Looking for trouble to make, things to burn, and humans to torment. Art duties in this issue by the incomparable Kevin Maguire!

The Violator's tale is coming to its end. His adventures and manipulations through human history are reaching their crescendo. How much of it was true? How much of it was the embellishment of a sadistic and insane demon? Who really cares? It was a great story, right? The Violator's new best friend certainly thinks so.
