Basically, a bunch of 1920s gods based on major modernist figures stuck in the middle of an Agatha Christie murder mystery, done in a comics-prose hybrid that's clearly trying to start a fight with JONATHAN HICKMAN. (Yeah, you heard, Jon. Come at us, bro.) It's high art versus lo art, with the most beautiful AUD KOCH artwork the world has ever seen. We're so excited, we may have to have a lie down.
This issue is a mix of prose and regular comic panels, presented in approximately seven chapters of prose with comic panels bridging each one:
- And Then There Was One...
- The Second Act in American Lives.
- Dionysus' Blew-Apart Period.
- The Dead Man and the Sea.
- Boots Stomping on a Godly Face, Briefly.
- ...To the Lighthouse!
- ...And Once Again, We Return to This.
Note: The characters portrayed on the front cover are in parentheses.

- "This will have to be my masterpiece." - Ananke
