In Extinction Express #1, the Hellbourne Elders dispatch Atrocitas, an insane angel/demon hybrid assassin to destroy Lady Death for once and for all. But their epic confrontation proves tragic for a beloved character and sets in motion events that will change Lady Death’s undead life forever! Is this the road to extinction? Featuring the diabolical return of Hellwitch and the first appearance of a major new character in the Lady Death Universe.

Twenty years ago, the earth as we know it was irrevocably changed in the aftermath of Lady Death's epic battle with Atrocity, The Mother of Abominations. A major city was laid to waste, and though she saved the day, Lady Death was labeled a global threat. Set against this backdrop, and with the extinction-level villainy of The Trinity threatening humanity, Lady Death returns to earth. Will she be seen as friend or foe? Is she humanity's salvation or destruction?

In the wake of the tragic events revealed in Lady Death "Scorched Earth", the extinction level villainy of The Trinity threatens humanity, the Halo Corporation threatens Lady Death and The Hellbourne Sect appear to be the puppet masters behind it all. To defeat these threats for once and for all, THE SWORN, a group of supernatural anti-heroes are assembled. The Steelheart, native American shape-changing were-woman, Michael, the warrior Archangel Wargoth of the Everkind, Zack & Zane Zander, supernatural exterminators extraordinaire, Mr. Atticus Marrow, the mysterious master of the occult, Chaotica, elemental witch in training and Hellslinger, dimension jumper. And introducing - Lady Satanus, the devil's daughter! What is Lady Death's role in all this? Is she an ally, or an enemy of The Sworn? It all comes down to this, and I promise, in the end, Lady Death is irrevocably changed forever!!!!

Lady Death has always been the BAD GIRL. But once upon a time, she was absolutely EVIL. Obsessed with annihilation, the diva of death sought to snuff out the entire human race and turn the earth into an endless graveyard. Thankfully, Lady Death changed her wicked ways to become a champion of the downtrodden and a scourge of demon-kind throughout Hell. For generations, the evil seething within the witch's soul lied dormant...forgotten...until now! The roguish warlock HELLSLINGER hopes he'll never find out. Along with a cursed demon hunter and an avenging vigilante known as LA MUERTA, Hellslinger seeks to return Lady Death to her former, anti-heroic self. But how can three stand against the most dangerous woman in all of Hell - a woman bent on ushering in a new age of death?
