Scorpion Vol 1 Devils Mark - Popes Secret GN

Description

"Rome the beautiful is dying, the symbol of civilization falling, the empire burning. Hidden from massacres and looting, a strange meeting is held by nine families who share the Roman Empire. To retain their power, they decide to support a new religion — Christianity — as well as its representative, the Pope. But who are these 9 mysterious families? Centuries later, during the Renaissance, a brigand called The Scorpion makes a living by unearthing relics in the depths of the Roman catacombs, which he sells at high prices to princes and bishops. Trebaldi, a powerful cardinal, takes an interest in this Scorpion, who is either a creature of the devil or a witness to a cursed era, who must disappear!"
