Jessica Chobot’s Witchy Comic FIREBRAND Reveals First Three Chapters

Hold onto your pointy hats, because we’ve got a comics preview that will knock your striped socks off! As you may already know, Nerdist News‘ very own Jessica Chobot is releasing a comic called Firebrand: The Initiation of Natali Presano with her writing partner Erika Lewis, and today we have the first look at the initial THREE chapters!

Created and written by Chobot and Lewis—with artwork by Claudia Aguirre—Firebrand follows willful witch Natali Presano. Natali never fit into her father’s perfectly human world: politically ambitious, he turned his back on her just when she needed him most. Having lost her mother to tragedy as a young child, Natali flees the safety of home into the arms of her aunt Selena, the mysterious guardian of a magical order waging a centuries-old war for survival in the mountains of Spain. Natali, now in her 20s, has followed in her aunt’s footsteps, becoming a powerful but rebellious witch in her own right. Returning to Seattle, she finds herself caught between a cruel modern world and the ancient evil threatening to destroy it.

Meet Natali in a trailer for the comic below:

 This makes total sense coming from our own resident sorceress Jessica Chobot, who co-hosts a supernatural podcast, Bizarre States!

And because Jessica and Erika are so excited to share their new story with the world, you can read the first three chapters on LINE Webtoon before the comic’s official launch on January 26, 2017! When you’re done, make sure you read their exclusive interview with The Hollywood Reporter for more about their process, and take a peek at some of the beautiful artwork by Claudia Aguirre in our gallery below!
