Description
The sheen of Hollywood's Rome is blasted away for this gritty, unflinching
tale of an unsung commander in Caesar's Legions. In 52 BCE Gaul, Caesar's forces
lay siege to the barbarian stronghold of Alesia in one of the biggest battles in
history; nearby, another barbarian army prepares to attack the Romans from
behind, led by the rebel Cammius, who once fought for Rome. Caesar dispatches
his greatest general, Caius Rodius, to track through the untamed countryside and
bring back the rebel's head. Who better to hunt Cammius than the man who taught
him the very skills he now uses to defy Rome? Torn between duty and friendship,
Rodius questions whether the Roman "road of stone and blood" is a path he still
wants to follow.
Story by Tito Faraci (Diabolik, Spider-Man: The Secret of
Glass, The Devil and Captain America) with art by Dan Brereton
(Nocturnals, The Punisher, God-Sized Thor, Red
Sonja).
