Series creator Josh Blaylock returns for Interior Art, joined by Brian Rogers, with covers by Pop Mhan, Tim Seeley, and More
Mercy Sparx is back-and she’s dragging demons from her past, both literal and emotional, into the spotlight in the brand-new, three-part miniseries Mercy Sparx: Daddy Issues, launching in comic book shops everywhere this July. Exclusive early editions and variants will debut on Kickstarter this month.
Series creator and writer Josh Blaylock returns for his second stint on interior art, with Brian Rogers (Trailer Park Boys) joining for finishes. Greg & Fake (Santos Sisters) return for colors, along with Jenn Chun, and Sarah Mitrache (Hack/Slash: Back to School), with lettering by Shawn DePasquale.
The story dives headfirst into Mercy’s tangled history with the various father figures who shaped her life, and the messy, chaotic relationships and flings that followed. The series picks up directly after the events of No More Angels Left to Fall, after Mercy finally put the traumas caused by her nefarious mother to rest, and encountered her most significant “bounty” yet.
Returning to the story is Father Kael Donavon, a conflicted priest with a past every bit as haunted as Mercy’s-bound together by a shared history steeped in demons, exorcisms, and impossible choices, as well as Hank, Manny, Wallace, and a new cast of characters.
Created in 2008 by Josh Blaylock, Mercy Sparx follows the story of a devil girl working for Heaven, secretly tasked with hunting rogue angels on Earth. Over time, the series has evolved into a genre-blending exploration of identity, rebellion, and purpose, wrapped in hard-hitting action and dark humor. Mercy’s deeply flawed but undeniably compelling journey has attracted a loyal fanbase and frequent comparisons to a mash-up of titles like Hellboy, Lucifer, Jessica Jones, Fleabag, and Constantine.
