SERIES PREMIEREThe lives of a struggling but madly ambitious Iranian playwright (Hafez Bashee) and an Arab serpent-king from 611 A.D (Zahhak)—once given the power to halt death in its tracks—become reticulated around a non-zero-sum game. 300 and BiRDMAN clash when Zahhak makes his pitch: toss out the unpromising conclusion penned for him in the 7th century.

Hafez must also deal with the risk of deportation to Iran—and a looming whiplash he does not want to face. « CREATION MYTH NEEDS A DEVIL, » Part One brings you to I, TYRANT.The series debut will feature a line-up of hot variant covers by the industry’s A-Listers, including Jason Shawn Alexander (Spawn, Killdalephia), Riccardo Federici (Superman: The Warworld Saga), Stevan Subic (Batman: Full Moon, The Riddler: Year One), Hans Woody, and Ryan Gajda, alongside series rookie artist Godfarr.**
