Coming soon: The Magdalena: the movie. Because The Magdalena: the comic book was not big enough to hold all the goodness. From Wiki:
“After the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ, Mary Magdalene, reputed to be his wife, gave birth to a daughter, Sarah. From this child is descended the holy lineage of the Magdalena. The Magdelena serves as the warrior and protector of the Catholic Church. The Magdalena has the ability to see into the human heart, to show people the error of their ways and give them the choice to redeem their sins. There is only one in a generation, and she alone stands against the evils of the world. Magdalena wields the Spear of Destiny, the spear that pierced the side of Christ, as a holy and formidable weapon against the twisted and the evil.”
I have got to figure out how to get me a piece of the Godsploitation action.
Holy lineage, that's a lot of bare midriff. Tell me, do the "twisted and evil" include those anti-choice haters *inside* the Catholic Church, too?
It's nice to know that there's both a Slayer and a Magdalena per generation. Protected from vampires AND, uh, "the evils of the world'?
I wonder if they could use her to replace Beatrice in the upcoming Divine Comedy video game.
Oh, don't worry – Beatrice is in the new video game. I'm doing a bit on that for the Reader…
