Another stellar adventure
brought to you by the people at Archaia Studios Press. This jaunt involves a group of carefully
selected nuns who are exorcists that absorb the demons they expel from others. If these vessels die naturally the demons die
with them, only violent death will release the evil within. These women are systematically hunted down and
eliminated until only a few remain.
There is a secret in one of the women that must not be freed, and
someone is conniving to find out that secret.
The
This three part series is
well written and the layouts are exceptionally clean. The series has a mature rating for excessive
violence, blood shed, and language. The
backgrounds of this collection show an extra-ordinary attention to detail and a
fine sense of proportion. Action
sequences were extremely graphic and in full motion, with the layout and
background enhancing, rather than detracting the overall effect.
