Description

Rome. 64 AD. The most daring heist in history is being planned by an unlikely crew – a former slave, a Vestal Virgin, a charioteer and a disgraced architect – each with their own personal motives. While Rome is distracted by the chariot racing and gladiatorial games of the Circus Maximus, the crew plans to rob the Imperial treasury under the Temple of Saturn. But when Emperor Nero sets fire to the city, they’ll be lucky to escape his wrath with their lives, let alone the loot. From Mark Sable (Graveyard of Empires, Miskatonic) and Giorgio Pontrelli (Miskatonic) CIRCUS Maximus is GLADIATOR meets HEAT – a blood-soaked historical thriller.

The crew that robbed The Temple of Saturn is running out of time. Their historic theft has made them a target of rival gangs, mystery cults, and Emperor Nero himself. Worse, they’ve been betrayed from within by one of their own. With their loot dwindling, they’ve got to escape both the fire and the Emperor. In this final issue, they are torn between making a less-than-clean getaway and exacting vengeance against Nero for all they have suffered. Who, if any, will make it out alive?
