SUMMARY:

Published by Top Cow Productions-Image Comics for January 2011, it’s the conclusion of the two-part “Paper Monsters.”  NYPD Detectives Sara Pezzini and Patrick Gleason are attacked by a monster conjured up by two demented young siblings. As the Witchblade, Sara fights back while Patrick and the children’s father encounter another grotesque creation.  The Hunter-Killer, Samantha Argent, cameos at the story’s end.    

REVIEW:

Including its spot-on cover image, this issue’s glossy visuals by artist Stjepan Sejic are once again exceptional.  Carrying their two-parter to a satisfying end, writers Ron Marz and Saurav Mohapatra deliver solid, if not predictable, work in setting up Sara & Patrick’s heroics.  With all the necessary creative elements in place, Witchblade # 141 proves a terrific read for Sara Pezzini fans.

ADDITIONAL CONTENT:

In addition to a full-page ad for Witchblade: Redemption, Vol. 1, there is a full-page reveal of interior sketch interiors of Witchblade # 142.  There is also a single-page column entitled “Sam Argent: Hunter-Killer,” by Top Cow publishing assistant Bryan Rountree.  Lastly, Top Cow offers its full-page “World Moos” news-and-notes column.
