A bold new vision of religious horror and rebellion!
Sister Marian is many things: a Mother Superior, a witch hunter, and a devout follower of a Goddess the Holy Father Church refuses to acknowledge.
When the Church declares her order heretical, Marian agrees to serve as its personal enforcer—delivering nightly judgment across the city of Vespers in exchange for her Sisters’ survival.
But with every soul she condemns, Marian feels her own slipping further into darkness. Can she ultimately protect the faith that guides her even as the Church weaponizes her to destroy it?
From writer Tini Howard (Catwoman, Excalibur, Assassinistas) and artist Joe Jaro (Buffy the Last Vampire Slayer) comes a bold new take on nunsploitation where theology meets heavy metal.
Collects Marian Heretic #1-5.
Tini Howard is best known as an architect of the Krakoan Age of the X-Men with her books Excalibur and X-Corp, and has enjoyed long runs on Harley Quinn and Catwoman at DC Comics. She lives and writes in Los Angeles, where she has names for all of the local cats. Marian Heretic is her fourth creator-owned comic book.
Jose "Joe" Jaro is a Filipino American comic book artist and character designer. His published works include sequential and cover art for Lion Forge Comics, Image Comics, Zenescope, Action Lab Comics, as well as numerous indie books. He has also produced character designs for Powerhouse Animation Studios. You can find him on Instagram @joe_jaro.
