NOMEN OMEN #8, available Wednesday from Image Comics, dives back into a world of magic, lore, and the darker sides they carry with them. Becky’s journey has been far from easy, and she’s still got a long way to go.

There’s no doubt that the story behind Nomen Omen is dark and mysterious. Becky’s life has never been normal, and now it seems that everything she holds dear is on the line. The real question is, will she be able to master this new world before it’s too late?

She went from living a life devoid of magic – and color – to diving headfirst into it all. Everything is so much darker than she, or the reader, could have imagined.

On that note, some of the events in Nomen Omen #8 could be disturbing to readers. While the series has never shied away from the more graphic elements of the supernatural, this issue takes it a step or two further. There’s a strong implication of sexual assault, and while it is never shown in detail, it is pretty unavoidable nonetheless.
