Variant cover: Rob Liefeld
"LIFE AFTER," Part Two. Struggling to adapt to her new life as the Witchblade's host, Alex finds she's the prime suspect in the death of an NYPD detective--and that the dead cop had powerful and corrupt friends who will do anything to keep his shady business quiet. But in the world of the Witchblade, nothing is quite what it seems, and Alex soon learns that there's more than greed and graft at play inside the circle of corruption. The bent cops also have a supernatural backer, and Alex has just landed in his crosshairs.
32 pages, $3.99, in stores on Jan. 10.
[QUOTE=Paulie Blade;2405994]My thoughts exactly. I really got into Seeley's storyarc which was developing slowly but was going strong and they just rushed the ending within one issue while I was expecting this story to keep going for multiple additional months. I wonder who did this call and was it entirely provoked by low sales.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, Tim Seeley arc was awesome. I really enjoyed his work on witchblade. and to be honest I disliked a lot of what Ron Marz did. and marz final arc. meh.
I am sorry but a lot of what marz did seemed as if he was writing a playboy comic.
I might give this a shot IF it is in continuity with the witchblade mythos. (like the new magdalena. BTW, is that series coming back or did it simply ended? the lastest series I mean)
I still don't like that the witchblade is no longer Sara Pezzini. Its simply not the same. Like how Falcon's Captain America is not the same as Steve Rogers' or Banner's Hulk and Amadeus Cho's

While I do get your point, I'm finding it exciting to get to know the new bearer. That's what this series was always about, wasn't it? Throughtout the years we've seen multiple past bearers in Sara's visions. I've always wondered who would be next. And now we are at this point.
What would be cool, though, is if we were able to revisit an older Sara once in a while to see how's she doing without the 'Blade.
Where is Sara and Jackie these days??
Sara lives with Gleason and Jackie had his head cut off.
I always wished that Sara would have ended up with Jake but obviously that didn't happen...

They killed Jackie for good? Wow....Silvestri let that go down?
Not sure how much control over what happens to Jackie that Silvestri still has...

That's a bit of a wait for The Darkness. Oh well, still, we get Witchblade now.
