In a realm beyond life and death, a young warrior steps into the arena in hope of freeing her people and fulfilling her destiny to become the fabled Gladiatrix. But to do so, she will have to survive an impossible quest where the haunting weight of her own sins may consume her. Gladiatrix Volume 1 collects Parts 1-5 as featured in Heavy Metal magazine, alongside a huge serving of behind the scenes materials, including character concept art, pin-ups, process pieces, and more. Co-created by John Stanisci and Oscar-nominated screenwriter Dan Gordon, Gladiatrix fuses sci-fi, fantasy and hyper-violence into a potent bloody mix with story and art by Stanisci, colors by David Baron, and letters by Tom Napolitano.
