Vault has announced Godfather of Hell, a dark and thrilling new supernatural crime series written by New York Times Bestseller Cavan Scott and drawn by Bram Stoker Award-winning artist Pius Bak. Blending neo-noir and hellfire, Godfather of Hell is sure to be THE comic of fall 2024.   

In Godfather of Hell, Dario Santini has lived a charmed life as an enforcer and debt collector for mob boss Niccolò Mechini. He’s had it all: respect, power, even the love of a good woman. But everything changes when he crosses a line and is shot dead on the sidewalk. Waking up in Hell, Dario faces a future of pain and suffering… unless he can turn eternal damnation into a business opportunity. 

The first issue of Godfather of Hell will launch with an incredible line of crime movie poster homage variants drawn by a murderers row of star artists such as Nathan Gooden, Joshua Hixson, Chris Shehan, Jake Phillips, Corin Howell, and Conor Boyle. 

Godfather of Hell #1 will hit store shelves October 2024. The full synopsis for issue #1 can be read below:
