Story
In this eagerly awaited sequel to Barda, #1 New York Times bestselling author and illustrator Ngozi Ukazu takes readers on an epic sci-fi adventure around the fan-favorite New God Orion.
As Prince Orion discovers his sinister origin, he faces a crucial choice: Is he destined to be a hero - or a villain?
While the festivities on New Genesis are joyful and the gods fill the skies with love, Orion, the adopted son of Highfather, feels out of place. As a brooding, combative warrior, he doubts why he of all people was chosen to be the intergalactic prince - and secretly fears he doesn't belong there.
Then Highfather confirms Orion's darkest nightmares: Orion comes from Apokolips and is the son of the tyrant Darkseid, adopted as part of a cosmic pact. How can Orion face his loved ones when tar-black malice flows in his veins? And when Darkseid threatens to destroy all of New Genesis, Orion must answer the ultimate question: Can he ever be a hero - or was he born to be a monster?
