Sanctum by Xavier Dorison
After receiving a distress call from another submarine off the Syrian coast, the crew of the US Nebraska search a series of massive caverns, where they discover a 70-year-old shipwrecked Soviet sub, whose crew died under mysterious circumstances. While investigating this enigma, the Nebraska's away team discover a massive underground sanctum dedicated to Mot, the ancient Ugarit god of death. Now, the crew must find a way to escape the death god's prison without freeing him to wreak destruction upon the world.
"This is a great blend of Alien like science fiction with Lovecraft style horror" - GeekedOutNation.com "...the build-up in this story was intense and powerful, and well worth the ride....Sanctum reads more like a traditional science fiction novel than a graphic novel. I hope I can read more graphic novels by this talented creative team" - Comics Bulletin "This book keeps you guessing right up until the end, which I honestly didn’t see coming." - Cosmic Book News "Recommend it to any one who likes occult mysteries and big, bad demons that go bump in the night." - FloridaGeekScene.com
