The Order: Wyrm War by Kek-W (Writer) John M. Burns (Artist) Annie Parkhouse (Letterer)

Seventeenth-century France. The writer Cyrano de Bergerac lies on his deathbed, wanting to tell one last story before he passes — a tale of how he became part of a group of warriors known as The Order, who throughout the centuries have been protecting man from the Wyrms. At certain points in history, these creatures can break through from their dimension and into ours — but now they’re wiping out the timeline…

Out on Thursday (9th March 2017) is The Order: Die Mensch Machine. The Expendables meets H.P. Lovecraft as knights and robots take on a dark, hidden power in medieval Europe!

In 13th-century Germany, while reading the papers of her dead father, young Anna Kohl uncovers a shocking secret – that defending Earth from an other-worldly menace is a secret cadre of warriors known only as The Order. Now she and her father’s rag-tag former comrades must do battle with the sinister forces of these eldritch creatures!

From Teutonic Knights with robot heads to gun-toting warriors in high speed pursuits on the streets of Elizabethan Engand, The Order is an incredible genre mash-up of medieval and Renaissance history, action movies, Michael Moorcock, Jack Vance, and Hammer Horror!
