The primary creators, Rick Burchett (@RickBurchett) and Greg Rucka (@ruckawriter), need little introduction. Between them, they’ve earned some half-dozen Eisner awards for their work in comics on such titles as The Batman and Robin Adventures, Gotham Central, Queen & Country, and Whiteout: Melt. The whole work is overseen by editor, designer, and web-guru Eric Newsom.
Lady Seneca Sabre is the 14th Marchioness of Cascadia, and captain of the good ship Pegasus. Her Ladyship is at once spy, thief, swordsmaster, (minor) witch, author of scandalous erotica, and gifted with the violin. Her Ladyship, as she is the first to tell you, is just generally fabulous.
She sails the Aether — a near-endless expanse of unfathomable near-emptiness — between floating Lands in pursuit of glory, gold, a dash of magic, and her own, unknown, agenda. Along her way, she encounters villains, rogues, madwomen, and two stalwart defenders of the law - the Marshal Miles Drake, and his Deputy Keyton Drum.
Lady Sabre's world is one of danger, adventure, and deception, filled with clockwork monstrosities, dire magic, and noble hearts. It is a world flavored by Victorian England and late 19th century Europe and the Old West. It is a world of cannon fire and steel meeting steel, brass gears meshing seamlessly with steam-driven pistons, a world of passion and humor and a dash of romance.
If you like Steampunk, adventure, worldbuilding, great characters, or just plain great comics, check out Lady Sabre!
