About this Collection

This collection brings together the complete run of the 2008 Image series, following a young woman who discovers she is the reincarnation of a legendary warrior princess, tasked with protecting the world from ancient supernatural threats. The story blends urban fantasy with action, as she navigates her new powers and responsibilities while dealing with the mundane challenges of modern life. Written by Andi Watson with art by Simon Gane, the volume collects all six issues of the miniseries.

In "Princess at Midnight," writer and artist Andi Watson crafts a dreamlike tale of duality and hidden courage. Teenage Holly Crescent, home-schooled in a tall, quiet house with her brother Henry, finds herself transformed each night by a moonbeam into a princess ruling the whimsical Waxing Castle, attended by the flamboyant Tranquility and a dragon named Chancellor. When the Horrible Horde threatens her realm, Holly must navigate the fragile line between her ordinary life and the fantastical kingdom that awakens under the moon. The story, illustrated, inked, colored, and lettered by Watson, features a cover by Watson as well.
