I think the big difference is that when I first came to Witchblade, I was coming to it with a blank slate.
"Sara is an old friend, and it's nice to be seeing her again, regularly. "Plugging back in has been incredibly easy," Marz told CBR. The move was part of a line-wide initiative to shake things up at Top Cow, with new writers and artists jumping on nearly every title.
Seeley, of course, took over from Marz when, at the end of the first major arc in Artifacts, the Top Cow Universe underwent a soft reboot and Marz left Witchblade to work on Artifacts full time (it had originally been planned as a 12-issue event series). “Marc is a titan of the industry, Ariela is a queen among artists, and there’s no one I trust more with a tale as enticing, horrifying, and utterly wild.After guiding the title through nearly a decade of stories and then taking a little less than two years off, veteran comics writer Ron Marz will return to Top Cow's Witchblade with October's #170, taking over the reins from departing writer Tim Seeley. “I am absolutely delighted to finally reveal that we’re relaunching WITCHBLADE with a new #1 - we’ve been working on this new story and vision for over a year, and I can’t wait to show you the heights and depths we hope to explore,” Bennett said. “That time I didn’t know how writer/cover art/interior art system worked but I picked all WITCHBLADE issues I could buy with Marc Silvestri’s covers –I really just bought them for the cover art at that time. “I grew up reading tons of manga but in my early adult year, I found a few American comic books in a bookstore on sale and WITCHBLADE was one of them,” Kristantina said. Backer’s names will be printed in the thank you section of the WITCHBLADE #1/2. The new Witchblade series will be written by Marguerite Bennett (DC BOMBSHELLS), with art by Ariela Kristantina (ADORA AND THE DISTANCE), color art by Bryan Valenza (DETECTIVE COMICS), and letters by Troy Peteri (HARLEY QUINN)! The WITCHBLADE 1/2 preview issue by the new team will be exclusive to Kickstarter with a cover by Marc Silvestri and Bryan Valenza.
