Publisher’s description

They say you can't go home again, but some people just don't know how to take good advice. Susan, from Grendel: War Child, is returning to the place where she grew up. Unfortunately, it's not the place she remembers. A gang of surly punks have taken over the town, and they're anything but welcoming to new faces. Susan's coming home, all right, but if she's planning on staying she'll have to paint the town blood red. Also in this issue: Matt Wagner takes you into the Imperial Court and introduces you to the Grendel-Khan, Jupiter III. Be there as the empire crumbles in "Babylon Crash, Pt. 1," the latest installment of Matt Wagner's fully painted back-up feature, Devil Quest.
