Purgatori #3
In "Goddess War: Epilogue," Purgatori emerges from the depths of Lady Death’s sword, Nightmare, wielding it as her own—only to find its power too great to control. After a fierce clash with the goddess herself, she rejects the weapon and reclaims her former human guise as Sakkara, stepping into the world below. Written by David Quinn and brought to life with bold, dynamic art by Al Rio—both inks and colors by Rio and Brimstone—this issue closes a mythic chapter with a quiet, transformative turn. The cover, a striking collaboration by Al Rio and Mike Flippin, captures the moment of Purgatori’s rebirth in silhouette and shadow.
