God exists! He lives in Brussels with his wife and daughter, Ea, and he’s a real jerk to them both. He lives in an apartment and spends most of his time in a giant office where he controls the world through an old computer. His son, JC, whom you may have heard of, made his escape long ago. When Ea gets fed up with her father, she decides to leave the nest, find her own apostles and write her own brand new testament. But before she makes her escape, Ea hacks God’s computer and leaks to the entire world their date of death by SMS. Her deed causes worldwide panic and God must scramble to fix it before humanity finds it has no need of him. (Madman Entertainment)
