G.O.D.S.: One World Under Doom#1 by Ryan North and Francesco Mortarino is published today, the only One World Under Doom crossover, and the revival of a series for a one-shot of G.O.D.S., the Jonathan Hickman and Valerie Schiti series that Marvel Comics put a lot behind but pretty much died a death on the vine.

As Wyn, avatar of The-Powers-That-Be, has taken Mia DiMaria, the protege of his ex-wife Aiko, centivar of The-Natural- Order-of-Things, only to reveal that this would prevent her from ever fully growing into her magical powers.

G.O.D.S.: One World Under Doom #1 by Ryan North, Francesco Mortarino
ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM! Using a combination of science and magic, Doctor Doom has taken over the world, which means Wyn – sole Avatar of The-Powers-That-Be (think: Magic God) – has an interest in how this happened AND how to stop it. His sworn apprentice, Mia DiMaria – a college-aged woman disillusioned with most magic, some science and definitely ALL of her job working for Wyn – is brought along, and soon finds herself at the center of a crisis that could impact Earth for generations to come. And worst of all, Doctor Victor Von Doom believes Mia has potential – especially if she were to be freed from Wyn's control. Doom offers freedom, but all gifts from Doom come with a cost…don't they? Science and magic collide in this oversized one-shot that brings the world of G.O.D.S. to the heart of the Marvel Universe! And if you don't yet know the world of the GODS, this is the book for you: It is both accessible AND apocalyptic.
