Demonology: The Shadow Headsman issue 1

DEMONOLOGY The Shadow Headsman – Issue #1 Synopsis Veteran private investigator Dag Rhodes, a haunted ex-homicide detective, and his sharp-witted partner Lux Callaway are drawn into a string of grisly murders unlike anything the city of Ashcroft has ever seen. Each victim is found decapitated, marked with the same mysterious symbol, leaving police baffled and the public terrified. As the investigation leads from rain-soaked crime scenes to the city's forgotten docklands and the abandoned Black Chapel, Dag and Lux uncover signs that the killer is far more than human. Witnesses speak of a living shadow that moves through darkness itself, leaving behind only fear and headless corpses. While Lux follows the clues with her keen instincts, Dag struggles to keep his growing dread hidden. The deeper they dig, the more he realizes they're no longer hunting a murderer—they're being lured into the domain of something ancient, patient, and evil. When Dag prepares to face the creature alone, determined to protect the woman he loves, Lux refuses to leave his side. Together, they make a choice that will change their lives forever. The hunt has only just begun.
