Bearing a sword of vengeance, Lady Death roams Medieval Europe in search of her place in the world. Lady Death is familiar to comics readers, but now her story is re-imagined in an all-ages epic set in medieval times. Amidst a harrowing battle between warrior knights and the otherworldly Eldritch, a child is conceived that is neither wholly human nor wholly Eldritch. Years later, her unique nature is discovered, setting into motion events that will jeopardize the lives of Hope and her mother. Is there any place in the world for Hope, or is Lady Death the only solution?" Lady Death #1 will be 32 pages and will cost $2.95.
