Premonition & The Fates of Destiny #3 and #4 by Kevin Crook, CEO of Crooked Comix.
Issue #5 on Kickstarter in March 2026.

 

When fate comes knocking, do you answer, or do you have a choice?
God is dead in a time beyond Ragnarök. Chaos, the child of darkness, now turned loose, swallows entire galaxies whole, and threatens to extinguish all life and light. Cracks form across the Cosmic Egg of Creation and the Tree of Life that brings life to all, withers away, along with all hope of survival for the Cosmos.

The gods left behind, continue to fall in the hopeless fight against, Manafest, Chaos' evil henchman.
The Fates of Destiny are desperate to find a hero in this dark time and bestow their combined powers on Premonition, to even the score.  

 

But is it already too late? First, our hero will need to face his own demons before he can fight those that threaten all that is.  The gates of Heaven have been breached, and Hades spills out onto Earth.

The Fates of Destiny arrive at the birth of the baby boy, weaving their fate upon Chance only to realize his fate is already woven with theirs. When the time is right, they will return to finish their web, thereby sealing his fate.  Meanwhile, Chance, lives out his life in tragedy, unbeknownst of his fate to come. He leads a happy life until one day it all comes crashing down. Consumed by anger and grief, he seeks vengeance.

An old, broken man crushed by the death of his wife and unborn child stumbles upon a "chance" to reset the past. Does he have the courage to fight not only the darkness within but that which swallows the outside world?  The Fates of Destiny reappear with an intriguing proposition: if he agrees to assist in the battle against the darkness that plagues the Cosmos, they will reset his timeline and rejoin him with his lost love.  And so, the story begins...
