July 17, 2024 – GlobalComix, the digital entertainment trailblazer reshaping the landscape of graphic fiction creation, distribution, and consumption on a global scale, is bringing fans of Marc Silvestri’s Witchblade a whole new way to experience the supernatural thriller series with the launch of the 2024 reimagining as vertical scroll episodes. Debuting today from co-creator Marc Silvestri (The Darkness, Cyber Force, Batman and the Joker: The Dearly Duo) and writer Marguerite Bennett (Animosity, Batwoman, DC Bombshells) with artist Giuseppe Cafaro (Suicide Squad, Power Rangers, Red Sonja), die-hard fans are reintroduced to the series as Top Cow ushers in a bold new era of Witchblade. Readers can dive into Witchblade now on GlobalComix as both vertical scroll episodes and in the traditional digital comics format. The news series joins additional Witchblade stories from its 30-year history currently available on GlobalComix.
Sara Pezzini is back in an all-new origin story. A reimagining of the classic storyline, this high-octane supernatural thriller starts at the beginning with familiar characters and new story arcs. In Witchblade #1, New York City Police Detective Sara Pezzini’s life was 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.
Witchblade is just the latest series to join GlobalComix’s growing library of titles available as mobile-optimized vertical scroll episodes, the comic format helping publishers reach both current and next-generation fans in their preferred mobile reading format. You can expect to see more vertical editions of hit Top Cow series coming to the GlobalComix platform in the coming months.
Marc Silvestri, co-creator of Witchblade and Top Cow CEO, said, “Vertical scrolling is a great way to share our dynamic Top Cow Universe and creator-driven stories with our fans. We’re especially excited to introduce our over 30 years of sequential arthouse storytelling to even more new fans!”
“I truly think Witchblade is, as is much of the work by Marc Silvestri, one of the legit legendary classics that most people who have been introduced to comics have enjoyed at some point,” said Christopher Carter, CEO and Cofounder of GlobalComix. “We couldn’t be more thrilled to be working with Top Cow to bring such a renowned series to your screen in a vertical scroll format, specifically optimized for easy mobile reading. I sincerely hope to see more publishers thinking about their digital experiences in this way – where a unique digital reading experience does not compete with print, but helps boost audience reach for new stories. GlobalComix is just getting started with our focus on vertical scroll mobile accessibility, so stay tuned for more updates!”
GlobalComix continues to grow its robust roster of independent publishers available on the digital platform, including Vault Comics, Image Comics, BOOM! Studios, Oni Press, AWA Studios, Mad Cave Studios, and others.
