From Ringo Award-winning writer David Pepose (Moon Knight: City of the Dead, Savage Avengers) and Bram Stoker Award-nominated artist Alex Cormack (Sea of Sorrows, Breath of Shadows) comes an exciting new horror/supernatural series only from Mad Cave Studios, The Devil That Wears My Face!
The year is 1740, and the Vatican is in turmoil. Grappling with a profound crisis of faith, outcast exorcist Father Franco Vieri is dispatched on a mission of grave importance — to rescue a Spanish nobleman from the clutches of the sadistic demon known as Legion. But when the exorcism goes tragically wrong, Vieri finds himself trapped in a stranger’s body… and learns what horrors lie ahead when the Devil wears his face.
“I’m thrilled to make my Mad Cave debut with The Devil That Wears My Face,” said David Pepose. “This is the kind of series that tackles so many of my favorite themes, ranging from horror, action, and body-swap intrigue, to friendship, sacrifice, and the deepest crises of faith. Beyond the incredibly fun characters and exciting set pieces we’ve developed for this book, I couldn’t be more excited to team up Alex Cormack on this project; I’ve been a fan for years and seeing what he’s brought to this project only cements his title further as one of comics’ premier horror artists!”
“I’m very excited about The Devil That Wears My Face getting out into the public!” said Alex Cormack. “Being a fan and friend of David’s it has been wonderful working with him and some of the scenes drawn in this series have been career goals of mine, it’s an amazing book, one I’d want to buy and show off even if I had nothing to do with it!”
The Devil That Wears My Face drops in shops October 2023, just in time for spooky season! Letters by Justin Birch.
