    Witchblade

    Character » Witchblade appears in 689 issues.

    The Witchblade is the offspring of the primal forces of the universe, The Darkness and The Angelus. It usually takes the form of a complex metal gauntlet. Since it is male in nature, it seeks out female hosts. The Witchblade is semi-organic and reacts supernaturally to threats. It is able to grant its host a variety of weapons and can also heal the wearer.

    After reading issue 116, I have to say it again, I'm really digging Ron Marz's run on Witchblade. And since we're stuck with him from issue 80 to issue 150, I thought we should have a talkback thread for his run for anyone following Witchblade.

    Anyways, Ron Marz got me really interested in Witchblade again, which for 20 or so issues before his run, it got kind of bland and boring. Thanks to Ron we've gotten Jake's death, which greatly affects Sara, the passing on of the Witchblade, Sara having a daughter, and now the Witchblade has two bearers. Although it has gotten a little slow after First Born, something good looks like it's going to happen soon.

    I also love the art by Stjepan Sejic. It's absolutely an amazing style and I really hope he stays with Ron for his entire run. It's a really great team. The preview for the next issue looks to be interesting. We might see what Dani's new boyfriend's real motives are.

    ohhh, i've been meaning to ask this...

    are we sure that's Danni's new boyfriend?

    i'd heard rumors that Ian Nottingham was supposed to be coming back to Witchblade at some point this run, and that shadowy figure wielding the Witchblade looks a awful lot like him...

    but on topic, yeah, Ron's been doing amazing stuff with Witchblade and i really look forward to seeing what he has got planned out

    Interesting, I'm sure Ian will be back, he's a major character in it. But Ian has long hair, and unless he cut it (which is possible) then I don't think it's him. The hair looks exactly like Dani's boyfriend.

    Okay I see it now. I don't think it's pulled back from the preview image. There are parts of the hair dangling on the side. And with his large hair, it doesn't look like he could hide it lol

    word, I love Image/Top Cow comics and their mature readings. Cursing, sex, and violence. Nothing buttered up for the kiddies.

    they were at some point but DC wouldn't release the trademark, something about it being mixed up with the Batman trademark because of the Gotham history...

    i tuned out when it got into legal crap lol

    I am not digging much of the First Born storyline but I am glad thought they are breathing something new with the Witchblade. The steam really cooled off alot but the entrance of Ron really turned things around a bit.

    I just wish Sarah did die, it would be really be a big jolt in the entire series. It is too safe to save her in the storyline.

    If Sara died, I probably would've dropped this series.

    Not me... if it was done in a well written manner. One of the things I like about top cow is they aren't afraid to have major characters die and stay dead.
