Devil’s Due Presents: Hack/Slash / Mercy Sparx #1 2026 is a special commemorative crossover one-shot published by Massive Publishing and Devil's Due. Released to celebrate Devil’s Due’s 25th anniversary year, this book is a special re-release of the iconic crossover featuring two of the indie comic studio's most famous cult-favorite heroines.

Plot Synopsis

The story kicks off when an undead serial killer emerges from deep within the Catholic Church. His sudden resurrection and gruesome activities draw the immediate attention of two very different supernatural forces:

• Cassie Hack: The famous, street-smart slasher hunter who wants to eliminate the monster to protect innocent lives.
• Mercy Sparx: Heaven's devilish, rule-breaking fixer who has her own complex, celestial motivations for tracking down the target.

With vastly different methods and conflicting motivations, the two anti-heroines must navigate each other's paths to stop the undead threat before it triggers a larger crisis.
