Enter a world where police procedural meets ancient occultism in this brand-new paperback edition of Black Magick Volume 3: Ascension I. Written by the critically acclaimed Greg Rucka (The Old Guard, Lazarus) and featuring the breathtaking, wash-toned artwork of Nicola Scott (Wonder Woman), this series is a masterclass in modern noir and dark fantasy.

This Mature Readers title from Image Comics continues the high-stakes journey of Rowan Black, a robbery-homicide detective who is also the latest in a long line of powerful witches.

The Story

The veil between Rowan Black’s two lives is shredding. As a detective, she is used to solving crimes; as a witch, she is used to keeping secrets. But now, those who know her secret are closing in, and the ancient forces she has tried to keep at bay are manifesting in the heart of the city. In Ascension I, the pressure reaches a breaking point as Rowan must decide how much of her humanity she is willing to sacrifice to keep the darkness from consuming everything she loves.

• Intense Mystery: The series is celebrated for its slow-burn tension and intricate world-building that rewards attentive readers.

• Premium Format: This volume collects the next chapter of the ongoing saga in a high-quality paperback format with exceptional print clarity.
