Tensions mount as the body count rises in VERTIGO's newest urban-horror monthly! After her run-in with the rampaging Knight in last month's THE CRUSADES: URBAN DECREE, Venus begins to doubt her own senses and seeks out professional help. Meanwhile, as the violence in the streets continues, the manic radio talk-show host Anton Marx fans the reactionary flames of San Francisco public opinion.
WRITTEN BY STEVEN T. SEAGLE; ART BY KELLEY JONES AND RON RANDALL; PAINTED COVER BY MARK CHIARELLO
Sex! Sin! Subjugation! No wonder the Crusades have started all over again! After a haunting encounter in San Francisco's lost underground, the relationship between Venus and Anton comes to a head...literally! And it's an all out bloodbath on the grounds of one of San Francisco's historic properties when the Knight comes to visit the home of the city's most notorious resident.
WRITTEN BY STEVEN T. SEAGLE; ART BY KELLEY JONES, JASON MOORE AND MARK BUCKINGHAM; PAINTED COVER BY KENT WILLIAMS
As the mysterious Knight's brutal rampage continues in contemporary San Francisco, everyone plays detective. Venus bribes a homeless man for his account of the violence and, unfortunately, gains a new boyfriend in the process. Television might kill the ever-obnoxious radio star as Anton Marx meets his match in a beautiful but ruthless reporter. And the Pope makes Father Trinidad an offer he can't refuse ? Unless the Father wants to see God immediately.

Collecting the first 5 issues of the series about the ultimate embedded war journalist trapped in a most unlikely war zone: the streets of New York City. In the near future, America's worst nightmare has come true. With military adventurism overseas bogging down the Army and National Guard, the U.S. government mistakenly neglects the very real threat of anti-establishment militias scattered across the 50 states. Like a sleeping giant, Middle America rises up and violently pushes its way to the shining seas, coming to a standstill at the line in the sand - Manhattan or, as the world now knows it, the DMZ. Matty Roth, a naïve young man and aspiring photojournalist, lands a dream gig following a veteran war journalist into the heart of the DMZ.
Things soon go terribly wrong, and Matty finds himself lost and alone in a world he's only seen on television. There, he is faced with a choice: try to find a way off the island, or make his career with an assignment most journalists would kill for. But can he survive in a war zone long enough to report the truth?

Appearing for the first time since his revival in THE BOOKS OF MAGIC miniseries, Doctor Occult faces his greatest challenge when his male and female aspects begin to radically interchange. The driving force appears to be his/her repressed sexuality fighting its way to the surface under the influence of Koth, Occult's oldest enemy. Koth's goal is to separate Occult from his female aspect, leading to a desperate quest in which Occult must reconcile his duality - or be obliterated.

VOODOO CHILD is the story of a half-breed, outcast and heir to the Voodoo Queenship of New Orleans, if she can live long enough to claim her birthright. New Orleans is the most haunted city in America: a town of centuries-old ghosts and newly drowned spirits; where vampires, voodoo spirits and loups-garous make their home. Ruling over this all are the powerful Voodoo Queens, whose influence stretches into politics, business and crime as they maintain a delicate balance between the mortal and supernatural worlds. But in the aftermath of Katrina, all that has changed, for someone or something has murdered the Voodoo Queen and most of her court. The number one suspect is Dominique Laveau, a grad student at Tulane who is about to discover that her entire life has been a lie. Now Dominique must forge alliances with those out to kill her while seeking to uncover the truth behind the royal murders, as she is ultimately forced to deal with a destiny she could never have imagined. Voodoo Child is a new monthly series written by Selwyn Seyfu Hinds, former editor-in-chief of The Source magazine, award-winning author, journalist and TV producer, with art by Milestone Media co-founder Denys Cowan (THE QUESTION) and covers by Rafael Grampá.
