Broken Trinity #1 Ross Sketch Variant Cover C (2008) Witchblade Darkness Top Cow comic. Writer Ron Marz, Art Stjepan Sejic. Last year, there was a birth. This year, there will be a death. In 2007, Top Cow unleashed First Born, hailed by critics as "a quality mini-series," "required reading" and "an epic adventure." That storyline, chronicling the arrival of Sara Pezzini's baby and the ensuing war between Angelus and The Darkness,changed the Top Cow Universe forever. But that was just the beginning. Broken Trinity brings together the Witchblade, The Darkness and Angelus once more, but this time the stakes are even higher as a new artifact is discovered, forever upsetting the balance of power. By the conclusion of the crossover, a major new player will be introduced into the Top Cow Universe, while at least one established character will be gone forever. Broken Trinity #1 kicks off a three-issue limited series, augmented by three, stand-alone, tie-in issues for Witchblade, The Darkness and Angelus.
