TAROT WITCH OF THE BLACK ROSE #27 COMIC BOOK!
OUT OF PRINT. HARD TO FIND COLLECTOR'S ITEM WRITTEN AND DRAWN BY THE LEGENDARY JIM BALENT!

In Old Salem town, two sisters, both disciples of Wicca, or witchcraft, fight an epic battle in a centuries-long war for the acceptance and ascendance of witchcraft on earth. Raven Hex seeks to destroy nonbelievers while resurrecting her dead father, using any magical means necessary. Meanwhile Tarot, the “good witch,” aided by the strange Skeleton Man (a cemetery worker who can see the dead), hopes to stop her evil sister and all those who serve the powers of darkness. Jim Balent, who made his mark as an artist on DC’s Catwoman, writes and draws this modern day ghost story. He spins an interesting and spooky tale, and his women are, as always, beautiful (although almost ridiculously buxom). But more than the art and story, Balent is to be commended for his efforts to portray witchcraft and Wicca in a positive light, as his letter column and bonus interviews with real-life practicing witches attest.

Synopsis:
Tarot reluctantly agreed to accompany Raven to the annual celebration her devoted goblins hold in her honour. But Tarot is left to fend for herself against the goblins' mischievous affection when Raven must pursue one of her diminutive flock, who has gotten himself into a spot of bother...
