The Life After Returns To Kick Off Oni Press' November 2015 Solicits, With Invader Zim And Rick & Morty

Exodus: The Life After is the follow-up to Joshua Hale Fialkov and Gabo's The Life After, and will debut on November 4th.

Oni Press is pleased to continue the story of The Life After in this new series which will deliver on the promise that began in 2014. Called "one of the most original and entertaining comics of the past year," by Bleeding Cool, "wondrous and intriguing," by IGN, and "the most promising series debut since Saga," by Newsarama, The Life Afterwas only the beginning of Joshua Hale Fialkov and Gabo's boldly unique tale of the afterlife and its machinations. In Exodus: The Life After we will have the chance to learn what's in store for Jude and his revolution, and see more of fan-favorite characters such as Essie, Hemingway, and Ometochtli.

Here's the solicit – and all the Oni Press books for November.

Because in the quest to overthrow God himself, the only person who stands a chance is his son.
