In the aftermath of their first and closest follower’s sacrifice, Lamb continues the bloody quest to defeat the Bishops of the Old Faith, but they lack the conviction to tend their flock back at the cult. More potential followers are rescued by the day, but with no one to indoctrinate them, Lamb’s power grows stagnant and the One Who Waits becomes weary of his earthly vessel’s resistance to the full power and responsibility of the Red Crown. When famine strikes the cult, a challenger to Lamb’s mantle emerges, and a new struggle begins . .

The latest edition features covers from the devoted Peach Momoko (Ultimate X-Men) and Troy Little (Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas)! This one-shot follows the sensational miniseries CULT OF THE LAMB: THE FIRST VERSE, which was beloved by fans and critics alike.

PRAISE FOR CULT OF THE LAMB: THE FIRST VERSE:

“Troy Little’s excellent cartooning is busy, detailed and creative in following Paknadel’s inventive path, and the lamb’s visual transformation from sympathetic innocent to monster is well achieved.”—SLINGS AND ARROWS

“Genuinely one of the most fun comics I've read all year… Cult of the Lamb perfectly captures the game’s charm, humor, and surprising darkness while expanding the world in meaningful ways. … One of the best video game comic adaptations in recent memory, expanding the game’s world and story without losing the original essence.”—GONKBONK

“Cult of the Lamb really is the best damn fantasy story this side of a Conan anthology…” –AIPT

“Cult of the Lamb is on its way to be one of the best comic book adaptations of a beloved video game in a while. The love Paknadel and Little have for the source material is evident. If you love the game, then this is an opportunity to spend even more time within its world. If you’re new to it, then you have a unique folk horror comic to get into. Regardless of your point of entry, you’ll want to be indoctrinated by the great Lamb to be among his devout followers.” —THE BEAT

For longer than they can remember, these child vampires have lived a life of eternal wonder amongst the ruins of humanity. But shocking events fracture the group and set them on a path of discovery that will shatter their innocence forever. Score: ★★★★1/2 (4.5/5) There are certain comic book creators whose books I'll pick up without hesitation. One of those creators is Jeff Lemire. He instills confidence knowing that his stories will be thoughtful and engaging. You add a talented artist like Dustin Nguyen on another collaborative effort and well, 'Little Monsters,' is a must-buy. I know, shocking.   They team up again with an intriguing post-apocalyptic vampire tale featuring "the last children on Earth" who've been left to their own devices among the ruin...
