Death Vigil is a action-horror-comedy comic written and drawn by Stjepan Šejić, of Witchblade and Sunstone fame. It began publication in July 2014.Our story begins with a man named Sam Lewis, who died trying to rescue two women from a mugger. But when The Grim Reaper showed up, instead of passing on, he was recruited into the Death Vigil - a group of fighters under the Reaper's command who protect the world from the forces of evil.In December 2014, Sejic announced that the 8-issue initial miniseries will be followed by a four-part miniseries focusing on how James became a member of the Vigil and first met and befriended Mia, after which the main series would resume as a full ongoing. Poor sales in spite of its critical acclaim, compounded by Sejic's health and technology issues, threatened the second volume. However on December 4, 2015, Sejic posted on Facebook that he would be making one more attempt at the series with a second arc, while early artwork for volume 2 began to be teased in May, 2017.After a long delay, and brief cancellation due to Sunstone's slipping sales, Sejic announced plans to turn to crowd funding to continue Sunstone and revive Death Vigil, as well as his other dead works. The first chapter of Death Vigil Volume 2 was released on Sejic's Patreon (to patrons only) on December 31, 2019.Now has a character sheet

A Form You Are Comfortable With
 Death Vigil (Comic Book) / int_106f1a77
comment
A Form You Are Comfortable With: In the first issue, Bernie takes on another form to fight a Lich, though she doesn't want Clara to see it. From the sound of things, it may not much different from the creature she fights. Mia as well. She normally appears as a cute teenaged girl. However she's actually a True Primordial, making her one of the most powerful entities in the series. The sight of regular Eldritch Abominations is enough to drive normal people insane. A True Primordial's true form is enough to kill any normal person who looks upon it — and unlike Bernie, we have seen Mia's Primordial form. It is not pretty.

 Death Vigil (Comic Book) / int_1d6ab0a8
comment
How Do I Shot Web?: Veilrippers are significant to their wielder in some subconscious way, and have some unique power or property that's not always apparent, and which the members of the Vigil have to figure out on their own. Clara, for example, can use her feather to create portals, and she can also view the memories of anyone she touches with it.note Though Allistor also notes this as a trait of powerful Necromancers so it's unclear whether it's the Veilripper itself, or something unique about Clara Despite years as a member of the Vigil, Sam has yet to discover the purpose of his veilrippers, so mostly uses them to pummel things. Though he can also use them to summon a boatload (literally) of draugr to help him in a fight.

Non-Indicative Name: "Necromancers" don't actually bring back the dead - though they think they do. Nor do they reanimate corpses. They're actually more like Summoners, bringing Eldritch Abominations from beyond the veil, who then masquerade as their lost loved ones.

comment
Secret Relationship: A meta example with Sam and Bernie, in which the relationship was being hidden from the audience. While Bernie clearly cares a great deal for all of her Death Knights and personally takes any death among them nearly to the point of Heroic BSoD, throughout the series she's demonstrated a particular concern for Sam's well-being, which gets played for Will They or Won't They? Ship Teasing. And then issue 8 reveals to the audience that Sam and Bernie had been together all along, completely changing the reading of their interactions earlier in the series.

 Death Vigil (Comic Book) / int_2f36d97
comment
Older Than They Look: Almost all major characters, since both the Necromancers and the Vigil are immortal and stop aging. On the low end we have Clara who is one week older than she looks as of issue #4, on the upper end we have several people in the Really 700 Years Old category. And then there's Bernie. Most seem to stay at the same mental age, so technically-25-year-old James and technically-820ish Mia engage in a teenage friendship slash light romance.

Artifact of Doom: The Scythe. Even Bernie doesn't fully understand how it works, Maria implies there's more to its purpose than what the Reaper actually uses it for, and Alicia calls it "The Shard" and is openly dismayed when Bernie is able to reclaim it in the final issue. The first series ends without explaining just what it is. All we do know is that it's the source of Bernie's power as the Reaper, is able to raise the dead who have the gift as Death Knights, and creates their veilrippers and clothes from their most powerful memories.

comment
Superpowered Evil Side: Mia and Clara both have one courtesy of the Primordials bound to their souls. Most of the time they look pretty normal, but when in combat or pushed too far the Primordial takes control and they go One-Winged Angel. Notably, it's the blending of their human souls (with Mia helped by her father acting as a Restraining Bolt) that keeps the Primordials on the side of angels. The entities themselves are in fact innately evil.

The Big Guy: Sam notes that while the other members of the Vigil can do clever things with their veilrippers, he just hits stuff. And he's certainly one of the biggest and physically strongest (human) member. Hugin plays with the trope. He may not usually look like much, being a typically-sized raven. But in combat he turns into a friggen dinosaur, making him both one of the biggest and most powerful of the Death Knights. There's also Hector, who only plays a small role when he falls into Maria's Batman Gambit and is forced to summon Bernadette away from the battle in New York. He's a bear.

Token Heroic Orc: Heinrich / Allistor is a Necromancer allied with the Vigil. He was recruited into the Necromancers when he tried to report the sighting of a demon to the church and was instead arrested and taken before the Seraphim, who deceived him into joining their ranks to fight the Vigil. Allistor learned the truth and turned on his masters. Unfortunately, his actions to save Mia from the disease which was killing her permanently soured his friendship with Bernie. Mia as well. She looks like a cute teenage girl, but is actually one of the Primordials note her father bound the Primordial to her body when she was dying of disease and an incredibly powerful Eldritch Abomination who loves to chow down on other eldritch abominations. She's also very close friends with James (with evidence they share a teenage crush on one another), and is generally well-liked by the rest of the Vigil.

Heel–Face Turn
 Death Vigil (Comic Book) / int_617f0563
comment
Heel–Face Turn: Allistor's backstory. He and Mia lived in France during the 13th Century, and when he reported the sighting of a demon in the streets of Paris to the church, he was arrested and taken to the Seraphim (Necromancers), who recruited him with claims they were fighting a fallen angel. However as he worked on translating the documents and tablets they requested of him him he learned the truth and sought out Bernie's help. They struck up a friendship, but this started to fall apart over the discovering of a veilripper Allistor kept as a trophy from a Death Knight he had fought and killed before learning the truth about the Seraphim. When his daughter, Mia, was dying of illness he turned to the Necromancers but they refused to act to save her, and Bernie also rebuffed him. Instead, out of desperation he took it upon himself to use the Dreamer's Sigil and sacrificed Mia to forcibly bind one of the Primordials to her to save her life. Mia showed an appetite for other Primordials, so he turned her loose on the Seraphim. Bernie later came to deal with them both, but Allistor essentially stalemated her by threatening to turn Mia loose against the Vigil and their families, so she backed down and departed warning him never to cross her path again. Since then, Allistor and Mia have been staunch allies of the Vigil, though not members themselves. Mia and James are close friends and she's very well-liked by the rest of the Knights, while Allistor is at least respected. His relationship with Bernie remains frosty, however.

Heroic Sacrifice: Sam manages to regain his ability to move after a Banshee ambush in issue 6, and uses it to attack Wulf and buy enough time for Clara to port the rest of the immobilized Vigil members safely out of range of the entity blocking Bernie from being summoned. It gets him run through by Wulf for his trouble, and Bernie is summoned away by Maria to steal her Scythe before she can try to help him.

Only One Name: Most modern characters are given a first and last name, while characters that have lived for a long time (Bernie, Allistor) only use first names, as they have forgotten their original names and/or change them around.

Brought Down to Normal: Bernie is just a normal person without her scythe, and Maria fully exploits that fact to trap her and take the scythe for her own needs. Once sealed by a member of the Vigil, Necromancers are completely cut off from their gift.

The Reveal
 Death Vigil (Comic Book) / int_6b2b3b59
comment
The Reveal: Mia's backstory in issue 5 reveals just what it was that Clara's boyfriend was doing in the first issue: He was attempting to use Clara to bind and control one of the Primordials. Considering that Mia alone presents a significant enough threat that Allistor was able to blackmail Bernie into leaving them in peace by threatening to unleash her against them, this would have been a very, very bad thing. Issue 8 reveals Sam and Bernie have been in love, and possibly in a relationship, for at least six years prior to the series. None of the other Vigil members so much as bat an eye at their Big Damn Kiss right before the final battle. It completely changes how one reads their interactions throughout the series.

 Death Vigil (Comic Book) / int_72246a54
comment
Game Face: Maria has one involving black tendrils emerging from her back and her eyes turning yellow, which she briefly shows when Gallows has been a bit too patronizing. When Necromancers tap into their powers, the tattoos on their body are covered in eyes. Much to Sam's constant annoyance, this usually leads to them taking off their shirts. Their (normal) eyes sometimes turn red when they're about to go into battle. This has also been seen on Clara. Bernie's face cracks to reveal a more skeletal appearance underneath when she has to extend her powers. The reader never clearly sees what she looks like in this form.

Godzilla Threshold
 Death Vigil (Comic Book) / int_72856b70
comment
Godzilla Threshold: While so much as looking at Eldritch Abominations is enough to drive a normal person mad, the sight of Mia going One-Winged Angel will outright kill them. This is part of the reason why in Issue Five the Pale Court launches its attack in the middle of downtown New York City; the presence of so many innocent witnesses hamstrings the Vigil by preventing Mia from involving herself in the fight, thus stripping them of one of their most powerful assets. However the Vigil decides the threat presented by the Court's public attack is so great that they have no choice but to unleash her despite the risk of collateral damage. Bernie's nature actually invokes this: No matter how much she might like to, her scythe won't even touch a monster that's below a certain power level. Once again, the Pale Court takes advantage of this by sending a monster to New York that's too far below that threshold, and sends one that she can fight as a distraction to draw her away as part of Maria's plan. Bernie's own One-Winged Angel form falls under this as well; as apparently even her Death Knights can't tolerate the sight of her, so she's only "seen" using it once against a sufficiently powerful threat.

Newcomer Saves the Day: In the end of the first volume, it is the newest member of the Vigil, Clara, who saves everyone from the Pale Court's trap with her teleportation abilities and good old investigative skill, although this isn't the straightest example, as she is all but revealed to be the host of a Primordial—who is even older than the Vigil itself and just happens to work with them at the moment without them knowing.

comment
Summon Bigger Fish: Bernie makes sure she's available for this, for good reason. At the start of the series, the Vigil has just lost two members who didn't summon her for help. Issue 6 reveals that the call is automatic and she can't resist it even if she wants or needs to. This turns into a plot-point twice: first, she's summoned while about to try mending her relationship with Allistor, who subsequently sided with Wulf once Wulf explained his actions.note Wulf's surrogate daughter was killed in an accident and claimed Bernie refused to help her The second time is after Wulf fatally stabs Sam, and she's drawn away by Maria before she can act so she can steal Bernie's scythe. This is one of Sam's powers; see Gunnar and his band of draugr in the first issue. James's veilripper is a Magic: The Gathering-style card deck, which he uses, among other things, to summon creatures and spirits to fight on his behalf.

Immortality Begins at Twenty: The Vigil are locked at the age they died; hence James being called "kid" despite having been in the Vigil longer than Sam. Necromancers as well; Allistor is still the same age he was as when he was first recruited by the Seraphim, while Mia, who was bonded as a youth to one of the Primordials in the 13th Century, looks no older than James.

Black Eyes of Evil: When Wulf tries to attack Clara from behind, she shrugs off his posturing, with both her eyes, and the eyes in her sigils, turning black as the Primordial bonded to her surfaces.

Mia as well. She looks like a cute teenage girl, but is actually one of the Primordials note her father bound the Primordial to her body when she was dying of disease and an incredibly powerful Eldritch Abomination who loves to chow down on other eldritch abominations. She's also very close friends with James (with evidence they share a teenage crush on one another), and is generally well-liked by the rest of the Vigil.

Back from the Dead: All of the Vigil members have been brought back from death by Bernie. Mia was also killed by her father as part of the ritual required to bind her with a primordial to save her from the disease which was killing her. Maria's plan for the Scythe is to bring her dead daughter back to life. Unfortunately, it turns out her daughter's "ghost" is actually a primordial whose rise is part of the Pale Court's long game. In issue 7, Clara manages to use her Veilripper to bring Sam back from death after having been killed by Wulf.

Restraining Bolt: Allistor's sigils act as one for Mia, helping her keep the Beast under control, particularly after she was first bonded. Maria's later do the same for Alicia, at least until Alicia tears Maria's arm off to break her control. Notably, despite this, Allistor's control over Mia isn't absolute. When he betrays the Vigil after Wulf plays on his sympathies, Mia rebels against him and remains true to the Vigil instead.

Demonic Possession: Necromancers can fuse with Eldritch Abominations. They seem to have a symbiotic relationship with the abomination they host: they gain power and immortality, and keep their free will and sanity (most of the time), but on the other hand they need to hunt on humans to satiate their hunger. And there are special cases, such as Mia (who, despite hosting a True Primordial, kept her free will thanks to her father acting as a controller) and Clara, who is unknowingly hosting a True Primordial herself. Said True Primordial manifested a few times, once by saving Clara from a Necromancer, and the second time by helping her mend the mind of her ex-boyfriend. She even said "we" when doing the latter, though it seems she remains oblivious of his presence, and unlike Mia she doesn't have a fellow necromancer acting as her controller...

Heel Realization: Maria Benes is shown to be fighting against one in Issue 5. It doesn't last, however, after a few words from "Alicia." It finally seems to stick in the finale, when she learns that Bernie had been telling the truth about "Alicia" all along. It probably helped that Alicia ripped her arm off to free herself from her Restraining Bolt. Allistor gets hit hard with one in issue 7. He betrays the Vigil after their victory in New York after Wulf plays on his own situation with Mia, as Allistor has never forgiven Bernie for letting Mia die rather than help him. It turns out he was badly mistaken. Upon reading Sam's memories, he learns that Bernie confided in him she was going to help Mia, but Allistor took action before she could do so. This leads him to finally agree to help the Vigil assault the Pale Court to rescue Bernie and recover the Scythe.

Foreshadowing: All over the place regarding Clara being the host of a True Primordial. The true nature of Alicia is also heavily foreshadowed: When reading Lana's memories while sealing her, Clara learns that primordial beings appear to prospective Necromancers by taking on the appearance of their (usually dead) loved ones. It's eventually revealed that the Thorn - one of the four True Primordials - manifests to Maria Benes as the ghost of her deceased daughter, Alicia. She uses this form to manipulate her into completing her translation of the Dreamer's Codex, and binding her to Alicia's brain dead (and soulless) body.

In issue eight, Bernie finally makes that apology of her own volition. Allistor needs to be prodded into it courtesy of a punch in the back by Mia, however.

Really 700 Years Old: Mia looks 15. Sejic has noted her to be 820ish years old. Issue 5 reveals she and her father lived during the 13th Century, when Allistor unwittingly was recruited into the Necromancers, and later bound a Primordial to Mia's body to save her when she was dying of an illness. Bernie took out the Pale Court 3,000 years ago, and given that not even she can remember all of her history, she's probably quite a bit older than that.

Red Eyes, Take Warning: Clara's eyes occasionally glow red when she's really angry. This is the first indicator of Very Bad Things. It's the first indicator that that Jon's attempt to link her to a Primordial, like Mia was to the Beast, was successful. Several Necromancers have been seen doing the same, and it's the color of the eyes that appear amongst their tattoos.

Alas, Poor Villain: Despite her arrogance, and all the things she's done and lives she's put at risk (if not outright destroyed), it's still hard not to feel sorry for Maria Benes. She's ultimately a broken woman driven off the deep end of the Slippery Slope by her daughter's death, only to be swept up into events she didn't truly understand, and was so misguided she genuinely believed what she was doing was right. It makes the means by which "Alicia" betrayed her and revealed that Bernie had been telling the truth all along that much more heartbreaking.

Oh, Crap!
 Death Vigil (Comic Book) / int_ad1db87c
comment
Oh, Crap!: The series is so full of these moments it could basically be "Oh Crap: The Series:" A very subdued one by Allistor. After Mia show's him the Dreamer's Sigil drawn by Clara's boyfriend, he immediately states they need to warn the Vigil, despite the hostility between him and Bernie. Since Issue 5 implies that Clara's boyfriend was attempting to use her body to bind a Primordial like Allistor himself did with Mia 800 years earlier, his response is notably an underreaction. They get much bigger as the series goes along, especially when Maria directs the Pale Court to wage open war against the Vigil in the middle of downtown New York in broad daylight. Issue 6 again when Wulf's betrayal and ambush - with multiple banshees, even one of which was able to paralyze Sam in the first issue - is revealed. A big one in issue 8 when "Alicia" rips off Maria's arm, severing the Restraining Bolt that, like Heinrich's control of Mia, enabled Maria to maintain control of the Thorn while she was bound to Alicia's body: a True Primordial running loose with nothing to limit its power.

Wulf has a lot of elements connected to Beowulf. In Issue 8, he reveals this is because it is him.

Face–Heel Turn: Wulf was once a member of the Vigil, until he fell in love with Maria Benes and became a surrogate father to her daughter Alicia. When Alicia was fatally injured in a car accident, Wulf called on Bernie to bring her back as a member of the Vigil since the girl was gifted. When Bernie told him that there was nothing she could do, it drove him to joining the Necromancers as part of Maria's plot to steal Bernie's scythe to resurrect her.

Came Back Wrong
 Death Vigil (Comic Book) / int_b983a56b
comment
Came Back Wrong: When Clara was brought back as a member of the Vigil it's progressively made clear that something isn't right about her. Especially with... whatever the hell it was she did to that Necromancer in Issue 6. Oh, and Clara's boyfriend was in the midst of performing the ritual Allistor previously used to bind Mia with a Primordial... Maria's entire plan was intended to bind the Primordial called the Thorn to Alicia's body, which is this trope all on its own. Unfortunately, Alicia's soul was already gone when Maria bound her, meaning that Alicia's body was just a shell and the Thorn took control of her body entirely. "Came Back Wrong" doesn't even begin to cover it.

Teeth-Clenched Teamwork
 Death Vigil (Comic Book) / int_c3648b87
comment
Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: Allistor and Bernie don't get along. Turns out Allistor unwittingly joined the Necromancers after being duped into believing they were the good guys back in the 13th Century, only to discover the truth himself. He came to Bernie seeking help and the pair struck up a close friendship which was destroyed when Bernie discovered the veilripper of a slain member of the Vigil in Allistor's possession. Later, when Mia was dying, Bernie would do nothing to help her, so Allistor took it upon himself to save her by binding her to one of the Primordials. Bernie was essentially blackmailed into turn a blind eye and let Mia live — especially since she turned to devouring other Primordials and necromancers — but under the condition they never cross paths again. That said, they're still all on the same side, and despite Bernie's insistence otherwise, they have continued to interact with each other over the centuries. Maria Benes is only using the Pale Court for her own ends. She wishes to become the new Reaper, at which point she intends to turn on and destroy her allies once she has what she wants. The Pale Court is fully aware of her plans, but are willing to go along with it until she gives them the translated codexes nonetheless.

Eyes Do Not Belong There
 Death Vigil (Comic Book) / int_d57dfae4
comment
When Necromancers tap into their powers, the tattoos on their body are covered in eyes. Much to Sam's constant annoyance, this usually leads to them taking off their shirts. Their (normal) eyes sometimes turn red when they're about to go into battle. This has also been seen on Clara.

comment
Ship Tease: There's some mild teasing between Sam and Bernie, present right from the very first issue when Bernie seems to take unusual exception to the thought of Sam dying (again) after she reveals that several other members of the Vigil have recently been killed. It's confirmed in issue 8 that Sam and Bernie are in love when he plants a Big Damn Kiss on her right before she charges off to battle The Thorn, and that the other treasured memory he held onto when he was "dead" was of another kiss they shared six years ago while Bernie was Heroic BSODing.

Don't Fear The Reaper: Bernardette is generally quite warm, friendly, and personable. She also doesn't actually take lives — just guards them and recruits the newly dead into the Vigil. Lampshaded in the first issue by having her point at a statue of the "classic" reaper and ask "Do I look anything like that?"

Big Damn Heroes: Hugin and Bernie in the first issue. In fact, Bernie has this as her hat; for the most part the members of the Vigil are on their own, but if they get in over their heads all they need to do is call her name. Allistor and Mia take a turn bailing Sam out of trouble as well. The Vigil as a whole does this when the Pale Court launches its full-scale attack on New York, spearheaded by Clara and Hugin riding in and accepting the Court's challenge on live TV.

The Unmasqued World: For most of history, the battle between the Pale Court and the Vigil has played out in the background and shadows. Beginning in Issue 5, under Maria's direction the Court finally goes to full-scale and open war against the mortal world, launching broad-daylight attacks on several cities, including the heart of New York. The Vigil is left with no choice but to act.

One-Winged Angel: Interestingly, most examples of this here are good guys - the villains tend not to bother hiding in the first place. Bernie apparently has one, but we don't get to see it just yet. Mia normally looks like a cute teenage girl. But when it's time to get down to business she reveals her true form; a monstrous Eldritch Abomination that literally eats other eldritch abominations for breakfast.note She's actually one of the Primordials, which Allistor bound to her body to save her life from an illness.

Well-Intentioned Extremist: Maria's only goal is to bring her daughter back to life. And in the process she's made pacts with the Pale Court and necromancers, unleashed hell on earth in New York, and stolen the Scythe from Bernie. And, apparently, all for naught. What she's bringing back is most definitely not her daughter. Issue 7 hints that Jon was performing the bonding ritual on Clara believing it was the only way to protect her from what was to come after talking with the spirit of his dead father. However the rest of the issue hints that, like Maria, he was being misled by a primordial all along.
