A graphic novel collected edition from Steve Orlando (Outlaw Territory), Chaz Truog (Animal Man) and Thomas Mauer (Popgun).
Russia. 1968. The government has legislated love. To fight sexual oppression, tantric pagans infuse a dead god's corpse with liberated sexuality... and Octobriana is born. Alone amongst her people, Octobriana is the goddess of passion, protecting love's freedom.
Liuba Kulagina has been held in a science city for decades. Her only love was a telapathic affair with her guard. When he is put to death, Liuba takes her revenge with a thought-plague that kills only lovers. Octobriana must protect her people's love, or die trying.
Octobriana is proudly presented on classic newsprint in the tradition of "samizdat" - the underground Soviet movement to published censored art and literature.
