Synopsis

Part One

The B.P.R.D. is changing. Abe's encounter in Indonesia has brought a new member to the Bureau and Johann finds himself in possession of a very valuable commodity. But not all the changes are for the better, and the B.P.R.D. will need all of its new resources to handle the sinister forces that have wormed their way into the heart of the Bureau's headquarters as the line blurs between the hunters of the supernatural and their prey.

Part Two

Something wicked has come to the B.P.R.D. as Liz's apocalyptic visions escalate and Daimio continues to withdraw from his teammates.

Part Three

Something wicked has come to the B.P.R.D.'s new headquarters. With a monster loose and a mysterious armed intruder in the complex, the body count is rising, and the agents of the B.P.R.D. are running out of time to determine whom they can trust.

Part Four

A mysterious monster is killing its way through the heart of B.P.R.D. headquarters, leaving the agents helpless as Liz withdraws further into the world of her visions.

Part Five

The monsters have disappeared, leaving a wake of dead bodies and unanswered questions in B.P.R.D.: Killing Ground's final issue. Kate and Johann hope to get some answers from the people who hold the key to the recent murders: the victims.
