Sleepy Hollow: The Witches of the Western Wood #1 Variant RI (15) (Mayer)[1:15]

Sleepy Hollow: The Witches of the Western Wood #1 Variant RI 1:15

Revisit Tim Burton’s Sleepy Hollow with a dark, character‑driven prequel that explains where the witches of the Western Wood began. In The Witches of the Western Wood, Sarah Archer—before Mary Van Tassel terrorized Sleepy Hollow with the Headless Horseman—was a young girl surviving her witch of a mother. Raised with her twin in the wild Western Wood, she learns the ways of witchcraft while enduring abuse and neglect. A life‑changing moment arrives when the hellish Hessian is beheaded, igniting a power within Sarah and steering her toward a ruthless destiny. Written by Delilah Dawson, illustrated by Jose Jaro, with cover design by Luana Vecchio, this issue arrives as a 1:15 retailer incentive variant (Mayer).
