MADAME XANADU #1 |
Written by Matt Wagner
Art and cover by Amy Reeder Hadley
Variant cover by Wagner
Legendary creator Matt Wagner (MAGE, GRENDEL, SUPERMAN/BATMAN/WONDER WOMAN:
TRINITY) and rising star artist Amy Reeder Hadley present Vertigo's newest
ongoing fantasy epic. Centuries long and around the globe her tale winds before
the ageless fortuneteller arrives in modern era New York. Her powers of sight
can change the course of human events, but how does the seer see herself? Wagner
and Hadley answer with painstakingly elegant story and breathtakingly innovative
art that is sure to make Madame Xanadu a classic! Issue #1 opens into a medieval
kingdom beset by intrigue and foul sorcery. A fair sylph with magic of her own
is thrown into the world of war and men - where she encounters a dark stranger
who knows not only her past, but her most intimate future as well. |
