'What would you part with to avoid eternal damnation?

'At 12 years old, John Constantine and his friends try and fail to summon...something. Truth be told, they have no idea what they're doing on the riverbed on the outskirts of town. They're just messing with what they've been told not to mess with, and that's enough for John.

'Witness the adolescence of John Constantine, a rebellious and clueless kid who unwittingly unleashes a demon. A demon who haunts a nation 30 years later by selling the irredeemable one percent on a scam to get into heaven, one that causes evil men with angel wings to fall from the sky.

'Will John stop this demon from obtaining more empires and ruining the world as we know it?

'Will he be happy to let a few more rich bastards fall first, like a vindictive Robin Hood?

'Or will sacrifices need to be made?'

'The Road to Golgotha holds two comics by Australian writers, set to the art of US illustrator Monty Borror.

'"His Own Personal Golgotha" by G.N. Braun follows the awakening of "the man" into a nightmarish world of cemeteries and bones. To achieve anything, he must find out where and who he is.

'"The Road" by Amanda J. Spedding shows us the changes wrought in Riley as she casts off her civilised veneer to allow the goddess within to emerge fully into her birthright.

'Redemption and personal growth are strong themes throughout both stories, and they each hold surprises as the protagonists struggle to come to terms with changes or growth they need to undertake. Travel with them as they go through their own personal golgotha along a road less-travelled.'
