Written by Ron Marz (Witchblade, Magdalena) and featuring the art team from Pilot Season: Murderer, Nelson Blake II, Sal Regla and Dave McCaig, the Magdalena series follows the Magdalena who has been the official protector and warrior of the Catholic Church for over two thousand years, sworn to defend the Faith with the Spear of Destiny against all manner of supernatural threats. However, Patience, the latest Magdalena, has seen through the hypocrisy of her masters and struck out on her own.
"I've been saying that Magdalena was a book that I've literally been waiting five years to write. I'm really, really happy that so many people thought it was worth the wait," Marz said. "Truthfully, as proud of issue #1 as Nelson and I and the rest of the creative team are, it's just the appetizer for what we're serving up in this first story arc. I hope everybody comes back for issue #2 and beyond."
Magdalena #2 finds Patience and her mentor Kristof fighting for their lives as they follow the trail of a demonic cult with a child at its head. Even if she survives the cultists in her way, Patience must decide if the Church is merely luring her back like a lamb to the slaughter. Magdalena #2 features a cover by Ryan Sook (Wednesday Comics).
