The Children's Crusade #1
"Chapter One: Nine Days' Wonder" kicks off Neil Gaiman’s haunting reimagining of the Children's Crusade, a historical enigma cloaked in myth. Set in 1212, the story follows a group of children drawn into a mysterious journey with only a single, enigmatic monk as their guide. Chris Bachalo’s striking interior art, with Mike Barreiro’s inks and Daniel Vozzo’s evocative colors, brings a dreamlike, unsettling beauty to the tale, while John Totleben’s cover captures the eerie stillness of a moment just before the unknown begins.
