Through the power of popular culture, the Elder Gods attack the multiverse.

Synopsis

[edit]

In a realm outside space and time, the Elder Gods are kept prisoner, but they have the power to tap into the darkness at the edge of humanity's consciousness, calling out to those sensitive to their essence. One of them is Howard Phillips Lovecraft, who translates their message into horror stories. He develops a following, including the secretive organization, Oblivion. Oblivion seeks to prevent the Elder Gods from reentering the universe and instruct one of their agents, Professor Emanuel Houellebecq to deal with Lovecraft. When Houellebecq's attempt at discrediting the writer's tales fails, he poisons Lovecraft. However, this does not prevent Lovecraft from being a mainstay of popular culture. The influence of Lovecraft, with the magic of Artillica, allows the Elder Gods to escape their prison and rampage across one plane of existence along with infinite different [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}Dungeons & Dragons (IDW Publishing)|{{#if:other|other|Dungeons & Dragons (IDW Publishing)}}]] ones throughout the multiverse.

An eldritch worm ends up in Cross Plains, Texas, where CVO agents Britt, Cross, and Bools are called in to deal with the problem.

Strange events are occurring around the world, including an aquatic reptilian race rising from the ocean on the American East Coast, a large slime lifeform in San Francisco, and humans at a Lovecraft convention becoming "gatherers", who subdue others so that they can serve as food for the "Traveler". Britt and Bools are sent to deal with those issues while Cross deals with the Elder God in Cross Plains, only to suffer what seems to be a heart attack in his Artillica-filled undead heart. Britt tries to take down the convention, but is incapacitated by the Elder Gods' slaves. In San Francisco, Bools meets Amanda Houellebecq, the new leader of Oblivion, who shows the vampire the last remaining part of Lovecraft, an eldritch organ that is decidedly still active.

CVO agents fighting off the reptilian creatures find that their licking causes one to fall under the spell of the Elder Gods, uttering their language. Britt, in correspondence with Benny, realizes that the disappearance of Artillica before must be due to the Elder Gods, and that they are tapping into Cross's personal Artillica. If they are using Cross as a conduit into the universe, they may have to kill him.

Notes

Continuity notes

[edit]
  • Infestation 2 was preceded by the four-issue mini-series Infestation: Outbreak, which continued the adventures of CVO after Infestation, crossing over with characters from Chris Ryall's 2009 comic Groom Lake. The post-Outbreak status quo is reflected here, with Nikodemus's parents being seen at CVO headquarters, Britt being up and about after the events of Infestation left her comatose, newly inducted members Yumiko and Isaac, and Cross rejoining CVO.
