In "Death Is a Maiden," Walter Simonson crafts a tense, emotionally charged chapter as Hawkgirl confronts a terrifying ancient force hidden beneath St. Roch's docks. With Howard Chaykin's striking art bringing every shadow and silhouette to life, the story unfolds as Khimaera is manipulated into hunting humans—while her mate is held captive, and Hawkgirl must face a deadly choice. The issue ends with a haunting final moment: Lt. Grubs, on his deathbed, reveals he knew her secret and charges her with vengeance, setting a new course in the shadows.
