For mature readers.

He died as a child, decades before his time, and spent the next 30 years in Hell thanks to a mix-up in the afterlife’s bureaucracy. Then a miracle occurred, and the Kid escaped perdition for Earth. His mission: become the new Messiah. His gift: the ability to summon any human, god or devil who ever existed—or who anyone once believed existed—with the cry of a single word… “ETERNITY!” Redeeming humanity, however, is trickier than it seems. From America’s forgotten highways to the endless realms of cyberspace, from the clamor of TV talk shows to the chaos of insane asylums, from the siren song of sex to the menace of mad gods, a whole host of forces—good, bad and ugly—have united to thwart the utopian efforts of this savior in sunglasses. Fortunately, he has a little help from his friends—including a hacker, a hobo, Zeus, Freud, Neal Cassady, Marilyn Monroe and many more. When it comes to saving the world, not even the power of Eternity can do it alone… KID ETERNITY BOOK ONE collects the first nine issues of legendary writer Ann Nocenti and superstar artist Sean Phillips’ classic VERTIGO saga of magic, madness and the strangeness of the twentieth-century psyche.

In the series finale, Kid Eternity terminates his conflict with Beelzebub, leaving his date Chelsea to tend to the dying Prince of Hell. Returning to Earth, the Kid embarks on a new quest: to find his parents and a meaning for his life.

Kid Eternity has entered into a bargain with Beelzebub to find five truly evil men in order to keep the devil from destroying Earth. While the Kid embarks on his mission, his date Chelsea wanders Hell''s Terminal Lounge and starts making trouble.

Kid Eternity embarks on a quest for normalcy, beginning with a date with Chelsea, a young woman he cured of hysterical blindness. Unfortunately, instead of teenage bliss, the two end up on a date in Hell.

Still rattled by the hallucinogenic effects of the genetically engineered drug Slap, Kid Eternity must also contend with the irritable genius Nikola Tesla and the crazed super-patriot Oil Jackson, both of whom hold the key to restoring the Kid''s sanity.

There''s a new drug on the streets called Slap, and it offers either instant enlightenment or total insanity. The Kid must try some himself if he''s going to save one of its victims.

When the Kid befriends a kind but hardened hustler living in the bowels of Times Square, he learns a thing or two about real people''s problems, and experiences firsthand what real violence feels like.

The Kid and Cristabel are committed to an asylum with only Blind Willie Dodge and Hemlock available for rescue duty, but the escape requires climbing the walls of both the mind and the womb.

In "God''s Tick," the Kid, Willie and Pathos visit Cristabel on her 18th birthday and attempt to understand the logic of the insane by seeing for themselves what insanity looks like.
