Llexi Leon began making noise in London, England in 2005. His highly intricate guitar style exhibits the many influences corralled to create his intense sound - from classical, flamenco, electronica, and ambient genres to the more prominent genres of rock and metal. All of these genres infused to one, Leon has built a cinematic metal fantasia with his music which has branched out to a comic book series. His main aspirations are bringing stories to life through escapism. He utilizes everyday events and his vivid imagination to drive him to create more avenues for his multimedia enterprise. To prove its tangibility, Llexi Leon, has recruited artists from Marvel, DC Comics, The Darkness and Magdelina on pencils, inks, coloring:

~ Jason Metcalf on pencils and inks, and a driving force behind detailing the Eternal Descent world, who previously worked on The Darkness and Magdelina.

~ David Rivera will begin inking over Jason’s pencils from issue two and beyond, while Javier Tartaglia and Joel Chua, both veterans of many Marvel and DC comics titles, provide stunning colors.

Leon also began his own production company Incendium Records to release his first concept album "Losing Faith" and the EP "The Phantom of the Opera". This fulfilled Leon's dream of having all Eternal Descent media developed with the utmost highest standards under one roof. Leon has also begun recording his third CD release with producer Eddie Kramer (Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, KISS) which is slated for release early in 2011.
