Panel 7 Preview!

Hmm…how does one introduce oneself to a cult dedicated to infernal magic during an initiation ceremony? Well, considering that one of the cultists is the man responsible for Charles Pallentine’s death, I very much doubt a handshake is in order!

Let’s consider the symbol that the Black Friars seem to be using, shall we? It appears to be an arrow, so if we do a cursory search for arrow symbology, we might find this:

“The arrow is a highly phallic image, evoking notions of piercing, penetrating masculinity, becoming the predominant symbol of the holy Father and of fathers in general. Related to this are the arrows of Cupid, the sharp ones of gold represent love, and the blunt ones of lead represent the dispelling of love. It is also associated with the rays of the sun, and with hunting. As the weapon of Apollo, it signifies the light of supreme power.”


So, we’ve certainly got some very masculine imagery. You may also notice that it bears a resemblance to an inverted cross, also a testimony to their inverted faith.

On the whole, it’s safe to say that these fellows wouldn’t do “Relays for Life” or donate blood….but if its involuntary blood donation you have in mind…
