Jean-Paul Valley’s path to righteousness continues as he uncovers the antediluvian crucible that gave shape to the first Azrael centuries ago. Buried deep within the heart of an active volcano, its halls hold the secrets of the Order of St. Dumas…and the great beast who lived through it all.

Azrael comes face to face with his most startling foe yet- an undying hierophant who feeds on the hearts of the innocent and molten lava. He dwells hundreds of feet below the earth, hidden away from prying eyes. He is the first son of St. Dumas and his is a most divine purpose.

Reeling from his confrontation with the Order of St. Dumas’ origins, Jean-Paul Valley and Azrael find their faith crumbling. Disgusted by the shortcomings of his would-be-brother, Father Valley arrives to mete out justice unto the failed Azrael. And the sentence is death!

THE WARRIOR ANGEL OF ST. DUMAS RETURNS! Jean-Paul Valley does not want to be Azrael ever again. All it has brought him is pain, violence, and misery. He has sequestered himself away at a monastery in Europe to find peace. But when a young woman who claims to have the same System programming that made Jean-Paul into Azrael arrives at the monastery, he won’t have a choice but to don his violent mantle of Azrael once more to protect her from the deadly assassins who wish her harm. From the rising star creative team of Dan Watters (Arkham City: The Order of the World, Lucifer) and Nikola Cižmešija (Batman: Urban Legends, Future State: Gotham) this collection redefines one of the Batman world’s most iconic and fierce characters! Full run collection.

ANGELS AT WAR! Brielle has embraced her violent destiny as the warrior angel Sariel, despite all of Azrael’s interventions. Azrael will once more have to raise his flaming sword and gauntlets in violence to see if Brielle’s soul can still be saved. If it can’t, Father Valley and the Poor Fellow’s full machinations will come to pass and the world will be damned. The epic conclusion of Sword of Azrael is here!
