The conflict between divine order and personal destiny grows more intense in Ascension #5 – 1998, as the characters are pushed further into the heart of a battle they barely understand. This issue sees Lucien Barnabas and Andromeda Weaver venture deeper into the hidden truths behind the war between the celestial Mineans and their enemies, forcing them to question everything they thought they knew.
As long-buried secrets begin to surface, the characters are confronted with difficult decisions that could either unite or destroy them. The stakes are high, and the pace is relentless, blending world-shaping mythology with intimate, character-driven storytelling.
The artwork by David Finch continues to set the tone for the series—dynamic, emotionally resonant, and richly detailed. His ability to capture the raw power of celestial beings and the vulnerability of the humans caught between them gives the issue a visual weight that matches its narrative ambition. The layout and design choices throughout the issue reinforce the tension and urgency of the story.
