In partnership with Devolver Digital and Massive Monster, acclaimed writer Alex Paknadel (All Against All, Red Goblin) and Eisner Award–nominated artist Troy Little (Rick and Morty vs. Dungeons & Dragons, Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas) comes a deviously delightful, heretic-smashing excursion into the sprawling cosmology of the worldwide, BAFTA–nominated video game phenomenon that IGN calls "adorably demonic"!
In a land pervaded by cruelty and evil, the most innocent among us—young Lamb, the last of their kind—was selected to become a final dark sacrifice. Their death would forever seal the darkest of the Old Gods from our realm and usher in a new age ruled by the four eldritch Bishops of the Old Faith. So Lamb died . . . then forged a deal of their own.

Rejoice! The hit video game from Devolver Digital and Massive Monster is now a full-blown comics phenomenon . . . and acclaimed creators Alex Paknadel (Red Goblin, All Against All) and Troy Little (Rick and Morty vs. Dungeons & Dragons) shall reap the Lamb’s vengeance!
The Lamb settles into their new role as Wearer of the Red Crown and Magnanimous Leader, and along with new follower Nana, begins to build living quarters and, most importantly, the shrine where the quickly growing cult will feed the fervor of the Lamb’s new power. Elsewhere, the Bishops of the Old Faith feel fresh pain in old wounds as the One Who Waits declares a new earthly vessel, and Leshy is instructed to put an end to this new threat before the Lamb’s sway over the land and its people can grow.
Things are rough at the cult. Followers are starving and wallowing in filth, and dissent grows louder in their minds. But when Lamb returns to the Darkwood to find food and plunder for their growing flock, a nigh-deadly encounter with Leshy sends them home to the shocked and disheartened Followers. To protect the cult, Lamb must embrace the true power and rituals of the Red Crown before it’s too late.
Heretical creators Alex Paknadel (Detective Comics) and Troy Little (Rick and Morty vs. Cthulhu) write the final chapter of Cult of the Lamb's FIRST VERSE-and lay the seeds for new chapters yet to be told . . .
Lamb returns to the Darkwood, determined to finally defeat the nefarious Bishop Leshy at any cost. Back at the cult, Nana struggles with the instruction to sacrifice a follower in order to grant Lamb the power to push through their boss fight, but ultimately realizes what's best for the Lamb is best for the cult, and a difficult choice is made . . .
