Witchblade #1 Touts Campbell and Sienkiewicz Limited Variant Covers

The rebooted Witchblade #1 will also feature very limited edition variant covers by J. Scott Campbell and Bill Sienkiewicz

Top Cow Productions has finally revealed the much anticipated J. Scott Campbell (1/50) and Bill Sienkiewicz (1/100) incentive variant covers for Witchblade (2024) #1 by NYT Best-Selling writer Marguerite Bennett (Animosity, Batwoman, DC Bombshells) and artist Giuseppe Cafaro (Suicide Squad, Power Rangers, Red Sonja). Campbell's and Sienkiewicz's signature style will join the ranks of other cover artists like Giuseppe Cafaro, DANI, and Brad Simpson, and Witchblade's original co-creator, Marc Silvestri, the CEO of Top Cow Productions, Inc. and one of the founders of Image Comics. These covers will help kick off this new reimagining, which hits comic book stores this July 17, 2024.

This new series will be the first reboot of the 1990 Top Cow comic with the original series heroine, Sara Pezzini. Series creator Marc Silvestri said, "We can't wait for Witchblade fans to fall in love with Sara Pezzini all over again and for new readers to experience the energy of the 90s with this new origin story!"

In Witchblade #1, New York City Police Detective Sara Pezzini's life was forever fractured by her father's murder. Cold, cunning, and hellbent on revenge, Sara now stalks a vicious criminal cabal beneath the city, where an ancient power collides and transforms her into something wild, magnificent, and beyond her darkest imaginings. The new series will update the story to 2024 storytelling pacing and dynamics with, well, more anatomically correct art regarding the female characters, particularly the heroine.

Scott Campbell's and Bill Sienkiewicz's cover embodies Bennett's and Cafaro's "sleek, vicious, ferocious" and powerful new Witchblade – making viewers wonder how Sara will use this ancient power or whether she will be consumed by it.
