TATSUMI: THE SERPENT MISTRESS #2 is the next installment of the swashbuckling adventure series by #TeamINSYM's Matt Knowles and Steph Cannon, alongside artist Alessandro Ventura and colorist Alan Emmanuel. Utilizing their I AM QIDO fantasy horror one-shot graphic novel as a prequel, this story arc follows TATSUMI NAKIHANA, the last remaining daughter of the fallen YAMARAN EMPIRE.

She's pursuing a path of retribution and revenge against the evil horde that left her kingdom as nothing more than a trail of embers, ash, and corpses: The post-human DARK KONQUESTORS, and their vampire-like, spirit sucking accomplices: The SOUL RIPPERS.

This issue also includes some VERY SPECIAL GUESTS - the PIRATE / Heavy Mahogany band THE DREAD CREW OF ODDWOOD!
