The Next Reaper is a webcomic created by Jet Svärd ([=DeusJet=]) and Jimmy Olsson (Jimp the Shrimp), available for reading on webtoon, deviantart, smackjeeves and tapas.
There came a day when humanity lost all faith, and their thirst for power turned society into a living nightmare. God, ashamed, turned their back on them, and closed Heaven. The Devil, enraged that God would leave countless souls at his gates, refused to let them in. Life attempted to return the souls to their bodies, but turned mad from desperation, and Death, left with more to reap than he could handle, started to break down under the pressure. With nowhere else to go, the souls became marked by their sins in life, and coalesced into hideous abominations formed from each of the seven deadly sins. Now the Shapeless, creator of God, Devil, Life and Death, have come to Earth to appoint Death's successor.
Now Grim, the Son of Death, wanders the earth, sent to slay the seven deadly sins and dethrone the corrupt gods.
