“As always, don’t get attached to anyone!” These are the words of a very excited Tom Taylor as he and artist Trevor Hairsine announced the final chapter of their gut-wrenching DCeased series titled, DCeased: War of the Undead Gods. In an announcement clip that you can check out down below, he shares with everyone that this was always supposed to be a three-part series. But what can be worse than what our heroes and villains of the DC Universe have gone through? How about infected New Gods? Ok… that is very bad.

Here is the synopsis for DCeased: War of the Undead Gods provided by DC Comics
