The Dark Ages Begin Again…
An enigmatic 11th century Knight has come to render terrible justice on the citizens of 21st century San Francisco. His acts of unspeakable violence spark a firestorm of moral soul-searching in the hearts and minds of the city’s most colorful figures. Putting together the pieces of the Knight’s mysteriously brutal puzzle is the voluptuous Venus Kostopikas, a fact checker for a dying newspaper who has aspirations to rise above her station and lead her own crusade.
This first of two skull-crushing, re-mastered volumes collects-for the first time-the macabre Vertigo crime series by noted creators STEVEN T. SEAGLE (it’s a bird…, SOUL KISS, Sandman Mystery Theater) and KELLY JONES (Sandman, Batman, The 13th Son).
THE CRUSADES VOLUME 1 collects THE CRUSADES: URBAN DECREE and THE CRUSADES #1-9
