'''Empire''' is a comic book by Mark Waid and Barry Kitson about. . . well, [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin]]. A totalitarian [[The Empire|Empire]] has conquered most of the world, led by the power-armored super-scientist [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|Golgoth.]] The world's greatest superheroes are all dead, and the last bastions of freedom are cut off, outmatched, and being overrun. Nothing can stop Golgoth's drive for total world domination.
 
Or can it? The Empire, while mighty, is not without its own problems. The bevy of psychopaths that make up the government's elite are constantly scheming to advance their causes over their fellows', and occasionally over their leader. Golgoth himself, meanwhile, has a weakness that his enemies are trying to exploit.
