Ménage à catfight anyone?

The only man in issue #109 of Witchblade from Top Cow Productions is during a Dani Baptiste (the current Witchblade bearer) flashback sequence. The three women in the issue -- Dani, Sara Pezzini, the pregnant, previous bearer of the Witchblade, and Celestine -- get along as well as Hef’s girlfriends vying for the last bottle of blonde hair dye.

A tight manga-style Townsend cover starts off part two of the "One Good Turn" storyline in this very important issue of Witchblade with a bang. Dani is very surprised to see how her life has turned as the current wielder of the Witchblade. The Witchblade is an ancient, mystical, and powerful gauntlet that Dani has inherited from Sara Pezzini. Sara is a pregnant New York City police officer that is not only charged with showing Dani the ropes, but also finding out about the mysterious circumstances of her pregnancy and what that may mean to the whole Top Cow Universe....continue reading this review at Geeks of Doom
