Dan Watters Talks The All-new SWORD OF AZRAEL Series

Star comics writer Dan Watters returns to Forbidden Planet TV to chat with us about the genesis of his and Nikola Cizmesija's all-new SWORD OF AZRAEL series from DC Comics!

Sword Of Azrael: Dark Knight Of The Soul #1 - THE ANGEL OF ST. DUMAS’S FAITH IS CHALLENGED! This issue collects the critically-acclaimed three-part story that ran in the pages of Batman: Urban Legends ahead of the August debut of the new Sword of Azrael miniseries. Azrael has returned to Gotham City after a long time away, unsure of his purpose and having his faith constantly challenged by demonic developments in the city.

The arrival of the new antagonist the Poor Fellow will change Azrael's future forever. Reprints the Azrael stories from Batman: Urban Legends #8-10 that lead into Sword of Azrael #1!

Sword Of Azrael #1 - THE WARRIOR ANGEL OF ST. DUMAS RETURNS! Jean-Paul Valley does not want to be Azrael ever again. All it has brought him is pain, violence, and misery. He has sequestered himself away at a monastery in Europe to find peace.

But when a young woman who claims to have the same System programming that made Jean-Paul into Azrael arrives at the monastery, he won’t have a choice but to don his violent mantle of Azrael once more to protect her from the deadly assassins who wish her harm.

From the rising star creative team of Dan Watters (Arkham City: The Order of the World, Lucifer) and Nikola Cimeija (Batman: Urban Legends, Future State: Gotham) this miniseries will redefine one of the Batman world’s most iconic and fierce characters.

Dan will be attending Forbidden Planet London IN PERSON on Saturday 13th August at 1pm - and signing copies of both SWORD OF AZRAEL: DARK KNIGHT OF THE SOUL and SWORD OF AZRAEL #1. See details HERE.
