Fatale returns this week with a brand new story arc in issue #15 that takes place in modern times. If you're interested in a preview of the issue before picking it up, we have the first six pages and cover art. Originally planned as a limited series, Fatale is now an ongoing series that will continue Josephine's journey for the foreseeable future:
“Josephine, heroine of Ed Brubaker’s and Sean Phillips Image Comics series FATALE, has carried the curse for decades — able to enthrall men but chased by an ancient evil, she is seemingly destined to cause the ruination of anyone who loves her. The haunting series was originally planned as a mini-series, but Brubaker and Phillips have found that curse of the femme fatale is inexhaustible. Thanks to strong sales, a wealth of stories yet to be told, and a certainmesmerizing quality, FATALE is now an ongoing series.
“Fatale was originally envisioned as a novel in three parts,” said Brubaker in an interview with Comics Alliance, “but I kept having ideas for side-plots and tangents or single issues, and it started to feel more like it was meant to be a more sprawling story. So I just decided to let it go until it’s finished.”
Fatale #15: "FATALE finally arrives in modern times, as Nicolas Lash's research from his prison cell draws out old enemies. And him with nowhere left to run.
And remember each issue of FATALE contains extra content, articles and artwork that are not available anywhere but the printed single issues."
