Ron Marz on Witchblade #171: My Job Is To Make People Care, Then Do Terrible Things

Sara Pezzini has been shot, but who it is that pulled the trigger is a mystery that only deepened in the most recent issue of Witchblade, #171, the second issue of star writer Ron Marz’s anticipated return to the series.There are spoilers ahead, so if you haven’t already read it, pick up a copy of the issue at comiXology or Image Comics and read along with us.With Sara separated from the Witchblade and comatose after the shot from a suspiciously Artifact-y bullet, the supporting players in her new life–one that we’ve barely even begun to know yet–start to see it pulled apart, with her title as sheriff of a small town removed and handed to somebody less competent, but more chummy with the mayor and one of Pezzini’s deputies on the cusp of figuring out just what it is that’s going on with Sara, by way of a meeting with a new and very different Angelus.Marz joined ComicBook.com to discuss the issue.
