BLACK CLOAK TP (2025)

Essex and Pax's last case brought horrible truths to light and almost leveled the city of Kiros. Now, five years since the 'Essex Fire,' Kiros has changed dramatically, and ex-Black Cloak Phaedra Essex is either the city's greatest hero or greatest villain, depending on who you ask. Meanwhile, Black Cloak Pax has a bloody new case, a rookie partner, and absolutely no leads. It's a very bad time for something ancient to have awakened beneath the city. Collects Black Cloak #7-11.

From Eisner Award-winning writer KELLY THOMPSON (Black Widow, Captain Marvel) and superstar artist MEREDITH McCLAREN (HINGES, Jem & The Holograms), BLACK CLOAK is a delectable fantasy and sci-fi blend with a detective procedural shot straight through its heart. Essex and Pax are two Black Cloaks investigating the murder of a beloved prince of Kiros, the last city in the known world, before it topples into chaos. Mayhem. Murder. Mermaids. What more could anyone want? Featuring nearly 200 pages of story, this collection contains the first arc of the series that AIPT says, Combines elements of sci-fi, fantasy, and noir into something wholly original and compelling. Move over, SAGA. This is my new obsession. Collects BLACK CLOAK #1-6
