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.
