<b>Acclaimed graphic-novel creators Tony Lee and Sam Hart present a dynamic retelling of the heroic and tragic tale of Joan of Arc.</b><br><br>It is 1424. France and England have been fighting for more than a hundred years, and Jehanne D'Arc experiences her first saintly vision. Even her parents think she's delirious - until her next vision allows them to save the village. From a small town to the besieged city of Orleans and on to the cathedral of Reims, Joan follows her faith and leads the French to victory after victory. But not everyone believes in the divine voices she hears. Some call her heretic and want her burned at the stake. From the creators of <i>Outlaw: The Legend of Robin Hood</i> and <i>Excalibur: The Legend of King Arthur</i> comes a visually striking, action-packed story of a young woman facing her own fears, the men who lead her country, and her enemies' deadly arrows to become a heroine whose name would be remembered for centuries to come.
