Ever since the Great Crash in 1929, the world has been grappling with an altered reality, as a new order of gods has joined humans on Earth. Fast forward to several decades later, in 1970, when it is rumored that a certain goddess can help humans to become gods. We follow one man, who epitomizes the American Dream, as he gives up everything to find Lilith, the "Mother of Evolution." But another goddess, The Queen of the Night, intercedes.
Why? Just what does it take to be a god?

À propos des auteurs

Jean-Pierre Dionnet is a French comics writer. He was born in Paris on November 25th, 1947, at a time when there was still rationing in the capital, so he spent the first five years of his life in central France. He fell behind in school and focused solely on his goal of working in comics. While pursuing his dream of becoming a scriptwriter, he worked as a broker on the weekend, and he was also a bookstore clerk at the first rendition of Futuropolis.
Jean-Pierre Dionnet started his career as a comics writer in "Pilote" in 1971. His first comics work was writing short stories for such artists as Jacques Tardi and Jean Solé. In 1974, he wrote "Tiriel" for Raymond Poïvet and joined the editorial team of L'Écho des Savanes, where he continued to write on the side. A year later, he founded the magazine "Métal Hurlant, " along with Bernard Farkas, Philippe Druillet, and Moebius.
He remained editor-in-chief of the magazine until 1985. Alongside his editorial activities, Dionnet remained active as a scriptwriter, creating stories for Jean-Claude Gal ("Les Armées du Conquérant, " "Arn") and Enki Bilal ("Exterminateur 17"). Jean-Pierre Dionnet has also been active in the television world, though at the age of 60 he decided to leave the industry to devote himself once more to scriptwriting.
His ensuing work includes a sweeping series about the history of America between 1929 and 2147, in a parallel world where the gods live alongside humans: "Des Dieux et des hommes" (Dargaud; "Of Gods and Men, " Europe Comics), in collaboration with Laurent Theureau, Roberto Baldazzini, and Moebius. Born in Vignola, Italy, in 1958, Roberto Baldazzini is known for his imagination. He is considered as a master of erotic comics, thanks to his female characters born in the Italian magazine "Blue" (such as Ginger & Roger, Angela, and Chiara Rosenberg).
In 1982, he published his first comic as a professional in the magazine "Orient Express." He then published a number of stories with Granata Press, including "Ombre d'Amore, " "Fixtown" and "Streghe & Santarelline." He worked alongside Elena La Spisa for "Sweet Susy" (Kappa) and also was an illustrator in advertising, working for AXE, Salvarani, ERG and TIM. His books are regularly published in the United States, with NBM, as well as in France, with Dynamite.
In France, he has also illustrated the second volume of "Des Dieux et des hommes" (Dargaud; "Of Gods and Men, " Europe Comics), alongside Jean-Pierre Dionnet. Baldazzini is not only an illustrator, but also an artist, who has exhibited in Italy, in France and in the United States. Corrado Mastantuono was born in Rome in 1962. After graduating from the National Institute of Cinematography and Television, he worked as an animator until 1989.
Then he decided to focus on comics. In 1990, he participated in the publication of the Italian comics magazine "L'Eternauta." At the same time, he started working for Disney Italy. In 1995, Mastantuono revisited the character Yellow Kid, allowing him to confirm his position at the publishing house ComicArt, which the same year published "Il Teatro dell'assurdo, " a collection of his illustrations.
Mastantuono was one of the illustrators of the series "Nick Raider" (Sergio Bonelli) and also illustrated many issues of "Magico Vento." Alongside Jean-Pierre Dionnet and Roberto Baldazzini, he illustrated the second volume of "Des Dieux et des Hommes" in 2011 (Dargaud; "Of Gods and Men, " Europe Comics).
