LOS ANGELES 05/10/2024 — Top Cow Productions is pleased to share an exciting peek into the new world of Witchblade with a trailer video featuring New York Times bestselling writer Marguerite Bennett and the legendary Marc Silvestri on what’s in store for readers this July from Image Comics.
This new Witchblade #1 will be penned by Bennett (Animosity, Batwoman, DC Bombshells) and drawn by fan-favorite artist Giuseppe Cafaro (Suicide Squad, Power Rangers, Red Sonja). The creative duo will work closely with Silvestri (Top Cow CEO, Image Comics co-founder, and original Witchblade co-creator). Together, the team will reintroduce the this popular action-packed, crime noir series to longtime die-hard fans and new readers alike.
This forthcoming Witchblade #1 will feature a reimagined origin, with contemporary takes on familiar characters, as well as fresh story arcs to hook new fans and rekindle the energy and excitement that fueled the ’90s Image Revolution. New York City Police Detective Sara Pezzini’s life is forever fractured by her father’s murder. Cold, cunning, and hellbent on revenge, Sara now stalks a vicious criminal cabal beneath the city, where an ancient power collides and transforms her into something wild, magnificent, and beyond her darkest imaginings. How will Sara use this ancient power? …Or will she be consumed by it?
