Mini-Series Premiere. Celebrated TV writer Sabir Pirzada (Ms. Marvel, Moon Knight, Dandelion) and Eisner-winning creator Michael Walsh (The Silver Coin) present Inayah Jibril, a "Muslim John Constantine"-a new type of exorcist re-examining modern horror for fans of The Department of Truth and Killadelphia.
When Humans stop believing in the supernatural, they stoke the flames of their desires regardless of how it burns the planet. With the usurpers despoiling their home, the supernatural refugees initiate guerrilla warfare in The Sacred Damned #1. Humanity's best hope for survival might be a woman who admires the evil spirits.

A fantastic horror pilot, and a highlight among the Horizon Experiment issues so far. Read Full Review
The Horizon Experiment in one-shot issues continues to show quite a bit of promise. Image is going a really good job of twisting the expectations on traditional comic book genres by simply switching the leads to be something other than white guys.. Theres a lot of room to explore new ideas from cultures that arent always given the center of page and screen. Read Full Review
Pirzada's plotting and Michael Walsh's visuals are classic Vertigo horror, but from a different perspective than white British men. Read Full Review
If this is all I ever read of The Sacred Damned I got a full story that made me happy to sit down and read it. I can be satisfied with that for a little while, but I do hope there's more of this in the future. The Horizon Experiment one-shots so far have been a lot of fun to read and would be great additions to my monthly reading list. Here's to hoping we see a lot more in the near future. Read Full Review
The Sacred Damned clearly has plenty of potential. This is another case where it'd be a shame to just get a taste of what this creative team could do given a longer runway to tell stories of this universe. Read Full Review
A great read, that taught me a bit about Djinn. I feel like we could have benefitted from a little less setup and a bit more focus on the hero - she seems cool, but I wanted to know more on her methods and convictions.
Walsh as always is amazing.
Really wish this would turn into something. It was a good visual one shot that told a pretty solid story.
