Logan grew up in a boarding school for children with magical prophecies, but she fulfilled her destiny so young that she's now having a midlife crisis despite being in her 20s. When she falls for the estranged daughter of a mystical crime family, Logan's new love puts the entire school in jeopardy.
A grounded story about the magic of young adulthood, star-crossed modern romance, delayed coming of age, and finding your place in a world too busy to notice you.

'Destiny, NY' #1 is a supersized launch for Black Mask Studios' first on-going series and it couldn't have gone better than this dazzling debut.

Unfortunately, the art and lettering issues and the somewhat disjointed storytelling kept me from fully appreciating Logans journey. Read Full Review
Beautiful story, concept and art. Rarely do you see character development this deep
A refreshing slice of life comic, with hints of a mystery underneath. The supernatural Harry Potteresque aspect is the least satisfactory, although it doesn't undermine the story, and the main characters are given plenty of life. Looking forward to reading #2.
