Emily’s plan to infiltrate the Founding Fathers, influence monumental edits to the Declaration of Independence, and reverse the American-bred 21st-century apocalypse is off to a surprisingly smooth start after Benjamin Franklin himself takes her under his wing. But revolution is still brewing in the streets of Philadelphia, and when Emily catches wind of a royalist plot, she’ll need to think on her feet to use it to her advantage before it hijacks her only opportunity to change the course of history and save the world. It’s not too late to join or die! A new arc of New York Times best-selling author Stephen Graham Jones and artist Davide Gianfelice’s time-twisting historical slasher continues!
The New York Times–bestselling author of The Only Good Indians and My Heart Is a Chainsaw makes his comics debut with this time-hopping horror thriller about far-future Indigenous outcasts on a mission to kill Christopher Columbus. The year is 2112, and it’s the apocalypse exactly as expected: rivers receding, oceans rising, civilization crumbling. Humanity has given up hope, except for a group of Indigenous outcasts who have discovered a time travel portal in a cave in the desert and figured out where everything took a turn for the worst: America. Convinced that the only way to save the world is to rewrite its past, they send one of their own—a reluctant linguist named Tad—on a bloody, one-way mission to 1492 to kill Christopher Columbus before he reaches the so-called New World. But there are steep costs to disrupting the timeline, and taking down an icon isn’t an easy task for an academic with no tactical training and only a wavering moral compass to guide him. As the horror of the task ahead unfolds and Tad’s commitment is tested, his actions could trigger a devastating new fate for his friends and the future. Join Stephen Graham Jones and artist Davide Gianfelice for Earthdivers, Vol. 1, the beginning of an unforgettable ongoing sci-fi slasher spanning centuries of America’s Colonial past to explore the staggering forces of history and the individual choices we make to survive it.
When Indigenous survivors Tad, Sosh, Emily, and Yellow Kid plotted to reverse the apocalypse by stopping the creation of America, their wildest dreams couldn’t have prepared them for the consequences of interfering with history. Now the mission to kill Christopher Columbus comes to a close, but whose blood will spill when the Santa Maria finally hits shore? And where—when—will the desperate time travelers go when their efforts in 1492 backfire? Join New York Times best-selling author Stephen Graham Jones and artist Davide Gianfelice for the heart-stopping finale of the first arc of Earthdivers, and make your predictions about the next era of carnage to come!
“The pen is mightier than the sword.” Nice sentiment, but change of plans. When a new obstacle threatens to undermine the connection Emily has built with Benjamin Franklin—and all the progress she’s made toward changing the future—she adopts some moves from Tad’s playbook and starts spilling blood in 1776. And speaking of Tad? Back in 2112, Sosh and Yellow Kid discover that it might be more than just his legacy that lives on…
This is where our story really begins. Before the mission to kill Christopher Columbus, soon-to-be time travelers Emily, Tad, Sosh, Tawny, and Martin were enduring the end of the world…and ringleader Yellow Kid was taking his first unscrupulous steps to bring them all together to save it. This tragic hidden chapter reveals how the Blackfeet computer genius discovered the cave that changed history and destroyed lives—an essential tale from guest artist Riccardo Burchielli, shedding light on Earthdivers secrets before Davide Gianfelice returns for a new arc in a new era next month!

Heritage Academy is a four-year Christian boarding academy for students in grades 9-12. It is situated amid rolling and rich farmland atop the Cumberland Plateau on State Highway 62, nine miles east of Monterey, Tennessee. Its mission is to provide Christ-centered Adventist education to young people seeking to hasten the Lord's return. The school has an active academic curriculum, vocational program and spiritual atmosphere. The vocational program, training our youth in useful labor, incorporates technology related areas such as video production, and mission aviation as well as traditional areas including field/greenhouse farming, mechanical work, and literature evangelism. Students conduct weeks of prayer for local Adventist grade schools and travel to present spiritual programs throughout the southeast. Students receive thorough instruction in our fundamental beliefs as well as the prophecies of Daniel and Revelation. Students are taught to present messages in worship, and are prepared to share their faith. Additionally, Heritage Academy has a disaster response program in which students are trained in First Aid, CPR and a variety of Community Emergency Response Training courses. Students teach disaster response and respond to disasters both at home and abroad. Last year students responded to a local ice storm, which left 55,000 without power for up to four weeks. Students ran disaster kitchens and a disaster warehouse, meeting the needs of an average of 1,000 people daily. Additionally, a group of students responded with a medical team to set up clinics in Nepal days after the earthquake struck there. Heritage Academy's goal is to develop the character of Christ within our students and enable them to become masters of circumstances rather than victims of such as they serve Christ in ministry to others.
