Detective Sean Payne comes from a long line of witch hunters. However, he put that life behind him when he fell in love with Elizabeth Hecate, a witch he was assigned to kill. They had a happy life together until their oldest daughter, Rose, went missing.
Detective Payne believes her disappearance is linked to a group of missing children cases that has plagued their town of Vineland, NJ. As he obsesses over the case and neglects his family, the unthinkable happens—his youngest daughter’s witch powers manifest.
Created by award-winning horror writer Mark Poulton (Pizza Tree, Graveyard Shift) and featuring illustrations by Vampirella artist Chris Graves, Writhe & Payne is a 60-page horror graphic novel that tells the story of a young witch and her witch-hunting father who join forces to combat an encroaching evil.
The series is heavily influenced by Spawn and other 90s Image properties like The Creech and The Tenth. Variant covers include work by USAssassin’s Mike McMahon and Spawn alumni Kevin Conrad and Kevin Keane.
Perfect for fans of supernatural horror, dark family drama, and supernatural crime thrillers.
