MORNING
STAR is a Vatican-funded agency created to research and hunt malevolent
paranormal creatures and phenomena. Founded
centuries ago by a group of Knights Templar.
Over
the years the organization has begun taking magical creatures into their ranks
to help them combat the evil forces that continually threaten the world.
Among
the members of Morning Star’s principal contingent in the United States are
group leader Aaron Teller, a man with a sacred Irish pagan relic lodged in his
heart; Big Jaws, a large man possessed by a Slavic demon in search of
redemption; Max Laguard, a French alcoholic telepath; and the beautiful Olga
Kandewsky, who can communicate with and travel to the realm of the dead.
The
story begins when Trevor Reed, a patient at a New Orleans psychiatric hospital,
who is plagued by terrible nightmares which awaken the demon Legion. The demon
enchants and possesses Reed’s body, and then leads it far from America. Using
Reed’s body, Legion begins to execute the steps of a ritual to open a portal to
hell and bring the Eye of Malphas, an asteroid that will open a vortex linking
Earth and hell, crashing down to Earth.
The
members of Morning Star start to investigate immediately, but during the course
of their mission they confront and Legion who succeeds in causing the asteroid
to crash into New York City, turning it into a small scale hell on Earth.
As
Morning Star agents battle the demon and his servants, Legion himself is
betrayed by his hellish companions. A more powerful demon, Malphas returns to Earth
and takes Legion’s place, killing him and announcing his reign of terror. When
all seems lost and evil is about to win the war, Olga, possessed by the ancient
spirit of death, returns to save her companions by killing Malphas and closing
the portal to hell. However, she has now become Thanatos's helpless marionette,
setting her up to become an enemy to the whole world, since every time death
rises, cataclysms and atrocities shall befall the human race.
