In "Witch War Chapter One," Jim Balent launches a dark, atmospheric tale with Tarot, a witch caught in a growing conflict with her malevolent sister, Raven Hex, who seeks to reshape the world through occult power. When Raven Hex’s agents dig up a grave in Salem Woods Cemetery, they awaken a mysterious guardian—Jon Webb in a skeletal costume—whose presence hints at deeper secrets beneath the surface. Tarot arrives to protect the site and track her sister’s next move, setting the stage for a supernatural clash rooted in legacy and vengeance. The story unfolds with haunting visuals by Balent and Golightly, whose moody colors and sharp lettering enhance the eerie tone of this witch-haunted world.
