Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume One: From Fear Through the Eyes of Madness is a single-issue graphic novel in the Amory Wars storyline by rock band Coheed & Cambria front-man Claudio Sanchez. The story of Good Apollo takes a step outside the science fiction narrative of the first three chapters (of the Amory Wars series) and examines the life of The Writer, a character who is crafting the lives of the protagonist Claudio and his companions in the form of a fictional story. Through a series of delusional conversations with his ten speed bicycle about an unfaithful former lover, The Writer decides he must kill the Prise Ambellina to properly end his story. The events in the narrative itself build up to a final confrontation between Jesse's rebel forces and the Red Army of Supreme Tri-Mage Wilhelm Ryan under the command of General Mayo Deftinwolf, as well as a literal meeting of the Writer and Claudio culminating in the death of Ambellina and Claudio's emergence as the Crowing.
