Comic Book Preview – The Vigil #1

May 13, 2023 by Amie Cranswick

The Vigil #1 hits comic book shops and digital retailers on Tuesday, and we have the official preview for you below courtesy of DC Comics…

Who Are The Vigil? The shipping vessel Eastwind was taken captive by pirates off the coast of Thailand. 24 hours after the crew had been taken hostage, before communications had been established or any demands made, the crew reported an intervention by a group of unknown individuals. Amid other bizarre claims by the crew, are reports of an individual who changed his appearance at will and a woman who seemingly dodged bullets. Once the pirates were taken out, no attempts were made at rescuing the crew. There have long been rumours rogue metahumans targeting weaponized illegal technology. With some hinting that they call themselves The Vigil. What were they after? Why did they intervene? Are there metas among us? Stay tuned for more you are being watched.

 

The Vigil #1 goes on sale on May 16th, priced $3.99.
