Prelude To Labyrinth Starts In Wrath Of The Eternal Warrior #5
We have an advanced preview for Wrath of the Eternal Warrior #5, the first of a two-issue Prelude to Labyrinth. Written by Robert Venditti and drawn by Juan Jose Ryp, the story sets up the 4-part Labyrinth arch that begins in May as the Eternal Warrior takes his first steps out of Hell…and into the crosshairs of one of the greatest villains in the Valiant Universe.
Across six millennia, Gilad Anni-Padda – an immortal warrior sworn to forever serve the Earth – has felled zealots and madmen, emperors and tyrants in the course of his duty. But nothing he's faced yet can prepare him to run the "LABYRINTH" – a miles-long maze of horrors specifically designed to undermine his every strength, enhance his every weakness…and send him screaming into the darkness of death at every turn. But what kind of brilliant but twisted psyche could have possibly conceived such a monument to terror…and for how many centuries have they plotted to break the mind and body of history's most formidable soldier?
The answer lies at the heart of the "LABYRINTH" itself…and as Gilad endures a gauntlet of cutting-edge technology and sharpened steel, he'll soon discover why the merciless figure known only as the Dying One has singled the Eternal Warrior out for the ultimate deathtrap.
Now, before Valiant's immortal master of war confronts the cruel implements of his enemy's "LABYRINTH," discover where the Dying One's ancient rivalry with Gilad Anni-Padda began millennia ago…and how his centuries-long search for the secret of the Eternal Warrior's immortality is going to change both of their futures forever!
