The battle between destiny and identity rages on in Ascension #12 – 1999, the penultimate chapter of David Finch’s intense supernatural series from Top Cow Productions. As the walls between worlds crumble and power balances shift, the burden on Lucien Barnabas grows heavier—forcing him to make choices that will define the fate of more than just himself.
In issue #12, Lucien's journey into the unknown takes a darker turn. Caught in the centre of a spiritual and political war that spans both Earth and celestial dimensions, Lucien is tested by betrayal, prophecy, and the terrifying truths of his own origin. Factions rise and fall, ancient alliances unravel, and the scale of the conflict becomes impossibly vast. As the storm builds toward a climactic finale, every panel crackles with urgency and consequence.
David Finch’s artwork is as powerful as ever—bringing this dark fantasy epic to life with intricate detail, atmospheric shadows, and a cinematic sense of scale. Characters are rendered with emotion and intensity, and the world of Ascension feels at once ancient, futuristic, and wholly original. This issue captures the depth and drama that has made the series a cult favourite among readers who crave intelligent, supernatural storytelling.
Ascension #12 is vital reading for fans who’ve followed Lucien’s rise and struggle—and a brilliant entry point for collectors drawn to the artistry and ambition of late-‘90s independent comics. With only one issue remaining in the series, the tension reaches its peak, and this chapter does not disappoint.
