Deathblow #9

In Deathblow #9 (1994), the Black Angel’s assault on Montcairn Abbey reaches a breaking point as Deathblow and Sister Mary struggle to protect Christopher—only to see him taken. With the truth about Father O’Conner’s deception revealed, Michael confronts his own guilt and finds redemption through the true Holy Grail, healing his cancer and readying himself for the next phase of the fight. Written by Brandon Choi and Jim Lee, with moody, atmospheric art by Tim Sale and colors by Linda Medley and Digital Chameleon, the issue’s cover by Jim Lee captures the tension with sharp, dramatic flair.
