They thought the mad emperor, Caligula was destroyed. But his evil lives
on, hiding in plain sight in the body of lucky "Felix." Now good
Laurentius must track down the demon to stop the slaughter in the
streets and to avenge his wife's death. But the demon is not alone this
time. It seems that others with hellish powers have risen up and are
shaping the world of the new ruling class. Even young Nero, his son, has
a demonic influence changing the boy and directing him to take up the
grievous excesses of his father. The modern master of horror, David
Lapham (Crossed Vol. 2 & 3, Stray Bullets, Dan the Unharmable), joins
talented painter German Nobile in a descent into the darkest corners of
Rome's history.
