FAITHLESS #2\\n
Writer: Brian Azzarello\\n
Artist: Maria Llovet\\n
Publisher: BOOM! Studios\\n
Cover Price: $4.99\\n
Release Date: May 22, 2019\\n
Faith is drawn into a new world when she attends a party at the home of world renown artist Louis Thorn. It\'s a world of opulence, excess, and sensuality-and something darker that she can\'t put her finger on. There is something... curious about these people, a darkness or shadow just at the edge of reason... and maybe it is exactly what Faith is looking for.\\n

The Terrifics have entered cyberspace for a battle unlike any they have faced before. It\'s a battle against...God? Well, the science is still out on that, but as our heroes face off against all manner of monstrous plagues, things do seem to be reaching biblical proportions. Could the key to all this be the mysterious Pixel?\\n

Mad scientist Kinga Forrester, determined to become the Queen of All Media, nearly has the world of comics in her grasp. But she has not reckoned with the nihilistic power of the Crow Keeper! \\n
Joel Hodgson and the MST crew do for comic books what they\'ve done for movies, and the results are laugh-out-loud funny!\\n

Getting into U.A. High School was difficult enough, but it was only the beginning of Midoriya\\u2019s long road toward becoming a superhero. The new students all have amazing powers, and although Midoriya has inherited All Might\\u2019s abilities, he can barely control them. What\\u2019s more, the first-year students are told they will have to compete just to avoid being expelled!\\n
