A young woman tries to balance the demands of her family with her own hopes and desires. Despite the fantastic settings, the characters in these slice-of-life stories feel like real people, and that gives the stories real power.

          Release Date: April 10, 2019

          Faith. Sex. The Devil.

          Faith likes to dabble with magic. Her friends think it’s cute—and not just a little off-putting, but it’s part of her charm and her warped search for purpose in a world that makes too much sense. But she’s a true believer and knows there is a power within her reach. She’s right, of course. It just took a while for that magic, that temptation, that unknowable thing to find her . . .

          In short—Faith is bored as hell. And Hell has noticed.

          New York Times bestselling writer Brian Azzarello (Batman: Damned) and artist Maria Llovet (Loud) with Eisner Award-winning artist Paul Pope on covers coalesce in a story of self-exploration, eroticism, and maybe even love.

            STEVEN WRITES:

            “When I was a kid, I collected comic books and traded/sold at flea markets when I was in early teens. As a result, I have thousands of bagged and unbagged comics ranging from the 60’s through the late 80’s. I’ve always wanted to price them and sell them on eBay or something. I see the project taking hundreds of hours that I don’t have being a new small business owner. Do you have any suggestions for how I can get this done, or maybe a service that could do it for me (the valuation, I mean)? ”

              Batman: The Caped Crusader Volume 1

              Gotham City has endured much through its dark, twisted history, and even the cosmic changes wrought by the Crisis on Infinite Earths couldn’t give the town a fresh start–the grime is in its DNA. The Crisis did, though, allow for the reintroduction of familiar foes, albeit with a fresh take on the Caped Crusader featuring a back-to-basics approach to crime-fighting.

              Criminals don’t always wear a colorful costumes: some just stalk the shadows with sinister plots and evil intentions. A new threat, a fearsome assassin known as the KGBeast, is prowling the streets of Gotham City and he’s out to dismantle America’s Strategic Defense Initiative.
