Llexi Leon, creator of the multimedia concept ETERNAL DESCENT, recruits ESP-endorsed artists for cameo appearances in the Eternal Descent comic which is inspired by a host of iconic metal musicians. The initial launch issue was released by IDW Publishing on March 31st, 2010 with subsequent issues to be released every 4-6 weeks, spotlighting God Forbid guitarist Doc Coyle in issue 2, and Gus G of Firewind and Ozzy Osbourne in issue 3. Other bands including Static X, Atreyu, Children of Bodom, and Soulfly are slated for upcoming cameo appearances in subsequent issues.

Leon began making noise in London, England in 2005. His highly intricate guitar style exhibits the many influences corralled to create his intense sound – from classical, flamenco, electronica, and ambient genres to the more prominent genres of rock and metal. All of these genres infused to one, Leon has built a cinematic metal fantasia with his music which has branched out to a comic book series. His main aspirations are bringing stories to life through escapism. He utilizes everyday events and his vivid imagination to drive him to create more avenues for his multimedia enterprise. To prove its tangibility, Llexi Leon, has recruited artists from Marvel, DC Comics, The Darkness and Magdelina on pencils, inks, coloring:
~ Jason Metcalf on pencils and inks, and a driving force behind detailing the Eternal Descent world,  who previously worked on The Darkness and Magdelina.
~ David Rivera will begin inking over Jason’s pencils from issue two and beyond, while Javier Tartaglia and Joel Chua, both veterans of many Marvel and DC comics titles, provide stunning colors.

One grand prize winner will receive one ESP Guitar featuring the art of Eternal Descent comic character “LYRA”. Raffle tickets will be given out the night of the signing  with every Eternal Descent purchase and winner will be announced later that night.
