Top Cow Productions, Inc. is proud to announce an exclusive lineup of Final Order Cutoff (FOC) Incentive Variant Covers for the upcoming Witchblade #12—a game-changing issue that marks a defining moment in the iconic series’ mythology.
Collecting these covers is a rare opportunity for collectors, fans, and comic book retailers to secure a piece of Witchblade history.
“The stakes have never been higher, and what happens in this issue will change Sara Pezzini, the Witchblade-wielder, forever,” said Marc Silvestri, Top Cow Productions, Inc. Founder/CEO, Image Comics Co-Founder, and Witchblade co-creator.
Matt Hawkins, Top Cow Productions, Inc. President/COO adds, “These new covers are a celebration of the series’ legacy, and a visual promise of where it’s heading. This issue is the beginning of something monumental—and fans are going to want to be there for it.”
“KEY ISSUE ALERT, Part 1”
In an instant, everything changes. NYPD Detective Sara Pezzini’s partner, Michael Yee, has been gunned down and clings to life by a thread. Desperate, Sara makes a fateful deal with Kenneth Irons—plunging her into the nightmarish supernatural realm of “The Harrowing.”
There, Sara will face a crucible of torment and discovery that connects her past and future, and redefines the legacy of the Witchblade. She will emerge transformed in a way never before seen in the series’ history. Meanwhile, Jackie Estacado—the bearer of The Darkness—edges closer to his own awakening.
This is not just a turning point—it’s a reckoning.
