WITCHBLADE: DEMON REBORN

Dynamite Entertainment has announced a July release for Witchblade: Demon Reborn #1, a 48-page sequel in association with Top Cow Productions that is a sequel to Mark Millar/Jae Lee original story, Witchblade: Demon.

Witchblade: Demon Reborn #1 is written by Ande Parks and drawn by Jose Luis, with covers by Dennis Calero and Jae Lee. The issue also includes the original Witchblade: Demon story.

Here's how the book is described:

"Sara Pezzini and The Witchblade sent a serial killer who thought himself a demon to hell. A year later, the 'Demon' has learned what true torment is all about. Now, he's been offered a special opportunity by hell's bureaucrats: a chance to drag Sara back down with him. Sara Pezzini must confront her own demons to avoid losing everything and everyone she loves."

"The Witchblade has sent a lot of bad people to hell over the centuries. Witchblade: Demon Reborn gives us a chance to see what happens when one of them comes back," Parks said. "Mark Millar and Jae Lee created a character they called The Demon several years ago, in a Witchblade/Demon crossover one shot. Since then, Demon has discovered, at the hands of a genuine demon in the pits of hell, just how petty and insignificant he really was on earth.

"As Sara Pezzini has been getting on with her life, Demon has been going through some very unique and specialized tortures in hell. He's also been collecting a lot of hatred and resentment toward the woman that sent him there.

"Our series sends Demon back to earth for a short time in an effort to exact his revenge against Sara and the Witchblade. More important than the Demon's schemes, though, is how they reveal Sara's ongoing struggle to keep the Witchblade and her life under control. Hosting the Witchblade allows Sara to help rid the earth of some people we’re all better off without, but it’s also a burden.

"Witchblade: Demon Reborn looks at that burden very closely, examining the toll living with the Witchblade exacts on Sara and the people she loves. So, we've got all kinds of bloody, hellfire action, along with a penetrating look at what it’s like to be the Witchblade's host. It's a dark story that has been really fun to work on. I think readers who dig Witchblade, demons, or just police procedurals are going to really dig it."
