The breakout Valiant comic book sensation in her own new ongoing series.

You hear “because you demanded it” from comic book publishers but with multiple reprints, Faith’s ongoing title really is giving the fans what they want.

The high-flying hero from Harbinger that captured the imagination of the world is back with a new comics milestone.

With Faith #1 writer Jody Houser joins artists Pere Perez, Marguerite Sauvage and Colleen Doran to continue Faith Herbert’s adventures.

Valiant shared a first look inside the hero’s first issue of the new ongoing:

“In a city under siege by robots, aliens, monsters and even worse… celebrities, there is only one woman the people of Los Angeles can count on: the stratospheric superhero called Faith! Aspiring reporter by day and dedicated crime-fighter by night, Faith has tackled every obstacle in her path with confidence – like those crushing deadlines at work, the long-distance boyfriend half a world away, and the missing back issues that plague her comics collection! But, unbeknownst to her, Faith is about to collide with the one force she never saw coming: an up-and-coming super-villain bent on snuffing her out once and for all! But who is lurking behind the mask of her new foe…and could they just be the one person capable of rendering Faith powerless?”
