HEXWARE VOL. 1

Why sell your soul...when you can buy a new one? In a corporate-ruled city where class inequality is greater than ever, a desperate, lonely populace is drawn to neo-spiritualism and hedge magic. When their teenage daughter is murdered, the Marks family is left asking the gods what they did to deserve this. But their android maid, Which-Where, has a different approach. Perhaps if she asked the devil... Now, to pay the price, a machine with the soul of a teenage girl must hunt down souls who have escaped from hell. But on the way, she and her only friend, Ren, discover a vast conspiracy threatening to burn the last civilization to the ground. Can Which-Where keep her soul with her humanity on the line? A futuristic dark fantasy miniseries by acclaimed creator TIM SEELEY (Nightwing, HACK/SLASH, REVIVAL) and rising star ZULEMA SCOTTO LAVINA (The Little Mermaid, Red Sonja)! Collects HEXWARE #1-6
