"There’s no turning back now for our favorite heretic!
Facing against the tyrannical leader of the Church, the Hierophant, Marian might have finally chosen a path she can’t turn back from.
Now the Church is on her heels, and it looks like martyrdom in the name of her Mother is her only future.
But the witches still think of her as one of their own, even if she doesn’t want to acknowledge them, leaving a sliver of salvation for her yet…"
Tini Howard and Joe Jaro "bring blasphemers to their knees" in their fourth issue of Marian Heretic and we have an exclusive preview just for Daily Dead readers!
"Acclaimed writer Tini Howard (Catwoman) and lauded artist Joe Jaro (Buffy the Last Vampire Slayer) launch their very first creator-owned series at BOOM! Studios with a provocative, high-octane new take on nunsploitation, religious horror, rebellion, and good ole fashioned monster hunting in MARIAN HERETIC [...]
Sister Marian is a witch hunter of the highest order, a Mother Superior, and a heretic guided by a Goddess the Church refuses to acknowledge. When the Holy Father brands her order blasphemers, Marian strikes a dark bargain to become their personal enforcer.
As she delivers murderous judgement night after night in the city of Vespers, she can feel her soul fracture…but what else can she do with the lives of her sisters at stake?"
Available at comic book stores and digital platforms on February 4th, 2026, from BOOM! Studios, Marian Heretic #4 has a pre-order cutoff date of December 15th, so make sure to order from your local comic book shop before then. To keep up on the latest from BOOM!
