Vitruvian marks a bold new starting point and a return to the Underworld franchise, launching an all-new story arc from writer Rich Douek and artist Tom Derenick. What begins as a lavish high-society gallery opening spirals into chaos?and then horror?when a shocking murder reframes vandalism as something far more sinister. As Detective McCormick investigates, Exit City once again proves that in a world built on ambition and excess, even creativity can become a weapon.
