Essex and Pax’s last case brought horrible truths to light and almost leveled the city of Kiros. Now, five years since the “Essex Fire,” Kiros has changed dramatically and ex-Black Cloak Phaedra Essex is either the city’s greatest hero, or greatest villain, depending on who you ask. Meanwhile Black Cloak Pax has a bloody new case, a rookie partner, and absolutely no leads. It’s a very bad time for something ancient to have awakened beneath the city. Collects issues #7 – 11.
