Writer Ryan Stegman (Venom, Superior Spider-Man, X-Men, Vanish) and artist Jason Howard (Batman, Trees, Big Girls, The Astounding Wolf-Man) team up to create THE MISSIONARY, a horror comic for the ages.
Bryce Hunter is a devoutly religious man whose faith is shattered when he catches his wife being...Intimate with an Elder from his church. This harrowing event sends Bryce spiraling into the hands of a demonic entity named Uvydus,
Instead of rejecting possession, Bryce ACCEPTS Uvydus. Bryce wants to learn to be "bad" and Uvydus wants to be "less than completely evil." But before Bryce can use this new partnership to finally live a little, the world's greatest Exorcist sees Bryce as his greatest challenge. But that's not even the worst of it as a murderous group of demons breaks free from Hell and threatens to re-shape earth into a kingdom over which they rule!
An action-packed story that features demons, gun battles and a friendship for the ages.
For fans of PREACHER, CHAINSAW MAN, and THE EXORCIST.
