In "The Return of the Serpent Lady," a mystical trio of royal suitors—Mokon, King of the Moon; Sukon, King of the Sun; and Lucifer—each arrive to claim one of Sir Richard’s sisters, setting off a supernatural chain of demands and deception. With the aid of Winkon, the enigmatic brother of the celestial kings, Richard races to Hades to rescue Alice after she’s kidnapped by Lucifer. Grieg Chapian’s dynamic artwork brings the mythic clash to life, while Alex Blum’s striking cover captures the story’s otherworldly tension.
