Description
From Eisner Award-winning writer KELLY THOMPSON (BLACK WIDOW, CAPTAIN MARVEL) and superstar artist MEREDITH MCCLAREN (HINGES, JEM & THE HOLOGRAMS), BLACK CLOAK is a delectable fantasy and sci-fi blend with a detective procedural shot straight through its heart.

Essex and Pax are two Black Cloaks investigating the murder of a beloved prince of Kiros, the last city in the known world, before it topples into chaos. Mayhem. Murder. Mermaids. What more could anyone want?

Featuring nearly 200 pages of story, this collection contains the first arc of the series that AIPT says "Combines elements of sci-fi, fantasy, and noir into something wholly original and compelling. Move over, Saga. This is my new obsession."
