WITCHBLADE #26
Covert Ink Agency Exclusive • New York Comic Con 2026
Covert Ink Agency proudly presents one of its first exclusive releases with WITCHBLADE #26, debuting for New York Comic Con 2026 and featuring original cover artwork by acclaimed artist Julia Olimpia.
This exclusive marks an important early release for Covert Ink Agency, bringing together distinctive fine-art cover work, one of comics’ most iconic supernatural heroines, and the next chapter in Top Cow’s reborn Witchblade saga.
THE BEARER UNDER FIRE
Sara Pezzini returns as the current run continues its hard-boiled supernatural noir — a story built for longtime fans of the gauntlet and for readers who found the 2024 relaunch through its landmark #25 issue.
An internal affairs investigation. The threat of a new enemy. The fallout of crossing the Chairwoman and ASI.
Every bearer of the Witchblade struggles with mixed allegiances. Few more than Sara Pezzini. The weight of those entanglements now threatens to tear her apart.
Coming off the oversized #25 turning point — and the arrival of The Magdalena into the new Top Cow Universe — issue #26 pushes Sara deeper into the collision of badge, artifact, and the forces that have always wanted the Witchblade for themselves.
This series remains an accessible entry for new readers while honoring the larger-than-life energy and unmistakable legacy that made Witchblade a defining character of the 1990s comic era.
A LEGACY THAT NEVER LEFT THE PAGE
The return of Witchblade arrives as the property continues to expand across the Image line.
Written by Marguerite Bennett with art by Giuseppe Cafaro and Arif Prianto, the 2024 ongoing has already marked a major new chapter for Sara Pezzini: Image-wide Witchblade Team-Up variants, a Michael Turner cover rerelease for #25, crossovers including Vampirella, and the growing presence of the wider Top Cow mythos — The Darkness, The Magdalena, and the Thirteen Artifacts.
That renewed attention makes WITCHBLADE #26 a significant new chapter for one of Marc Silvestri and Michael Turner’s most enduring creations.
THE COVERT INK EXCLUSIVE
Created specifically for Covert Ink Agency, the NYCC 2026 edition showcases the work of Julia Olimpia, whose cover approach brings a dramatic, collector-focused presence to Sara Pezzini and the Witchblade.
More than a convention exclusive, this release represents the beginning of Covert Ink Agency’s commitment to pairing exceptional artists with landmark characters, meaningful releases, and collectible editions created for serious comic art enthusiasts.
