About the series
From 2006 onward, Image Comics published The Magdalena, a supernatural series most associated with writer Marcia Chen and artist Brian Ching. The story follows a lineage of warrior women chosen to wield a sacred spear, tasked with protecting the world from demonic and occult threats. Its single issue establishes a modern, action-oriented take on religious mythology, blending mystical lore with visceral combat. The series matters as a concise, character-driven entry in Image's early-2000s expansion of creator-owned genre comics.
