Recently bestselling creator Mirka Andolfo (Unnatural) teased her upcoming Image Comics miniseries, Mercy with the promise to unveil more exciting details about the goth-inspired, Victorian monster series as the 2020 U.S launch date approaches. Now there’s a little more…
Set in the fictional small town of Woodsburgh during the Klondike Gold Rush, Mercy introduces the main character Lady Hellaine—an “inhuman” woman—who is always seen with her butler, Mr. Goodwill…
Mercy explores topics of “otherness,” damnation and redemption, and what it means to be a monster in a horror tale perfect for fans of Penny Dreadful, Crimson Peak,The Alienist, Parasol Protectorate, and Dark Shadows.
After the poignant story of inclusion and self-discovery told in Unnatural, Andolfo presents a darker story that addresses issues far beyond typical genre-related tropes.
The series will launch first in Italy from Panini this November, followed by 2020 releases in France from Glénat and in the United States from Image Comics.
