Ring of the Nibelung Gotterdammerung 1-4

Adaptation created, written, & illustrated by P. CRAIG RUSSELL. P. Craig Russell's stunning saga of the Norse gods and heroes nears its conclusion with Gotterdammerung: The Twilight of the Gods, the final arc in The Ring of the Nibelung series. The unique cast of characters - gods, heroes, and monsters - are brought together by their various schemes and betrayals, leading to the explosive climax. Siegfried gives his Ring of the Nibelung to his beloved Valkyrie and goes out into the world, setting events in motion to bring the curtain down on the heavens and earth.

Mankind's greatest hero, Siegfried, is wooed by love and lust to make a pledge which will condemn his beloved Valkyrie and bring the attention of Wotan. Violence and ill-conceived marriages go hand in hand as the magical Ring is once again exchanged. There is only one last chance to avoid the death of man and gods alike. P. Craig Russell's graceful adaptation of the Germanic opera cycle continues on its journey of innocence, greed, and the glistening beauty of a time when Gods walked the earth.

Siegfried hands Brunhilde off as a bride to another man, but the Valkyrie won't be so easily discarded. The entire clan of the Gibichung are up in arms over accusations of rape and infidelity, as different players conspire to get possession of the ring. The fate of the gods is in the hands of men, for once. 

All betrayals made in the name of love or the name of greed come full circle as all in heaven and earth pay for their roles in Wagner's epic tragedy. P. Craig Russell wraps up his masterpiece, the fourteen-issue Ring of the Nibelung series, with this double-sized issue, presenting the most brilliantly realized portrait of the end of the world ever drawn.
