About The Book

Deep in a subterranean complex, scientists have created a stable microscopic black hole to discover the truth - is it just a matter-sucking monster or a possibly gateway across the galaxy?

Scientists have created a stable, microscopic black hole in a secret underground compound, but when they lose control, the black hole spews out a cosmic maelstrom, strange dangerous creatures, and most surprisingly…a mysterious human teenage girl. Now, a depressed but brilliant psychologist must help her estranged husband and the other scientists solve the mystery and close the black hole before it consumes all of Earth.

Dare to witness a cosmic horror series that will amaze and terrify you, with hit comic creator Zack Kaplan(Kill All Immortals, Beyond Real, Mindset), fan-favorite artist Chris Shehan(The Autumnal, House of Slaughter), rising star colorist Francesco Segala(Nights, House of Slaughter) and Ringo-nominated letterer Justin Birch(Road of Bones, House of Slaughter).
