Ok, so we have the Darkness, Jackie Estacado and his whole story line he cannot have sex or else he would die instantly.  He dies in Volume # 1 issue # 40.  He comes back to life in Volume 2.  Then First Born comes along and messes with my head, because he is the father of Sarah's (witchblade) baby is Jackie Estacado.  Wouldn't Jackie DIE??  If he conceives a child he is supposed to die or that is what his whole background is about.  Oh and NOW Elle is pregnant with Jackie's baby in the newest issue.  Elle is made from the Darkness power and made to be an independent being with the help of the creepy Doctor guy.  My question is...IF Jackie Estacado cannot conceieve unless dying why is he still alive??  Not that I am complaining Darkness is on my favorite comic list, but I am very confused!!!   Help a fan girl out people!!!!

The Darkness had the baby with Sarah, not Jackie (his body was there but The Darkness did all the work) so it didn't count. With Elle, she's not a human so I guess that doesn't count either. Must have to be a human/human thing, no supernatural beings involved.

Well I don't know about the new baby in Elle but from what I read the Darkness is really hopes father not Jackie and he can probably impregnant her because she is made from the Darkness power so their would be no need for Jackie to die to transfer the powers(only a guess)

I would have to say both of you are correct in the matter.  I was just confused because it kept saying in the comic...absolutely no conceiving or else Jackie would die!  If it is supernatural and Jackie basically had no part (well an unknown part ) in the making of baby Hope.  Elle is the Darkness power in human form.  So basically the Darkness got Sarah pregnant and Jackie got Elle pregnant.  I am really hoping they clear up some things later in the comic series!!
