Aguirre-Sacasa is also the writer on Sabrina, though the artists is Robert Hack[...]

Francesco Francavilla's covers on the series, for one, scream "collectible" and you just end up hoping they'll make it to poster form (and in fact there was a small poster for "Bee Vixens" from Dark Horse; I snagged one at a signing in New York) This second arc, "Prison Ship Antares", which focuses on the[...]
