FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MIRKA ANDOLFO's UN/SACRED IS THE FUNNIEST, SEXIEST AND
MOST IRRESISTIBLE LOVE STORY EVER PUT IN COMICS!

The extraordinary talent of Mirka Andolfo brings to life a Heaven (and a Hell) full of humor and
lovable characters…coming in November from ABLAZE!

AUGUST 21, PORTLAND, OR – ABLAZE announced today that the company will be publishing Mirka Andolfo’s Un/Sacred in a 6-issue limited series, with issue 1 launching this November. A collection of the work will be published next year in trade format.

Mirka Andolfo has proved herself to be one of the industry’s most talented and prolific young creators in recent times. Her latest project, Unnatural, published by Image, was released to critical and commercial acclaim. She also recently announced a new project called Mercy that will be launching later this year, in cooperation with international publishers Panini and Glenat, which will also be published by Image.

In Un/Sacred, Angelina, a voluptuous angel, and Damiano, a mischievous devil, are madly in love. But, while she does not intend to give in to temptation, he would very much like to... This is the tale of their bizarre and spicy daily life!

Mirka Andolfo said: “I'm excited to see Un/Sacred published in the United States! I'm still very attached to this book, my very first experience as a creator. I hope that American readers will enjoy the strange adventures of Angelina and Damiano! And I'm very grateful to ABLAZE, which strongly wanted this project!”

Rich Young, ABLAZE VP Creative/Business Development added: “I’m thrilled that ABLAZE is publishing Un/Sacred…it’s such a fun book, and Mirka’s art is always candy to the eye! She’s got a style and flair all her own…and her star keeps shining brighter every year with each new project she takes on.”
