Witchblade is an American comic book series published by Top Cow Productions, an imprint of Image Comics, which ran from November 1995 to October 2015.[1] The series was created by Top Cow founder and owner Marc Silvestri, editor David Wohl, writers Brian Haberlin and Christina Z, and artist Michael Turner.
The Witchblade comic was adapted into a television series in 2001, as well as an anime, a manga and a novel in 2006. A feature film based on the comic, titled The Witchblade, was announced for a 2009 release,[2] but was never produced. A second Witchblade television series was announced for development in January 2017,[3] but there has been no update since.
Top Cow relaunched Witchblade comic in December 2017 with the creative team of writer Caitlin Kittredge and artist Roberta Ingranata. The series features journalist Alex Underwood as the main character.[4][5][6]
The first of a new Witchblade comic series was released in July 2024 featuring a new Witchblade creative team: writer Marguerite Bennett, artist Giuseppe Cafaro, colorist Arif Prianto and letterer Troy Peteri.[7]
