Sword Daughter

In this three-issue Dark Horse miniseries from 2018–2020, a young woman raised in isolation by a sword-wielding father must confront a brutal past when a clan of raiders returns to finish what they started. Writer Brian Wood and artist Mack Chater craft a stark, wintry revenge saga set in a medieval landscape, where the bonds of family are tested by violence and survival. Though brief, the series matters for its tight, character-driven storytelling and Chater's evocative, atmospheric art, offering a self-contained tale of resilience and legacy.
