By day, she stocks shelves at the \u003ci\u003eMighty Mammoth\u003c\/i\u003e supercenter, cares for her two cats, and visits her tiefling daughter Marial and young grandson. By night, she is \u003ci\u003eThe Raven\u003c\/i\u003e-a cambion superhero with the strength, reflexes, and web-slinging abilities of a spider, and the dangerous power to transform into a towering arachnid queen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut Dondorale's quiet balance is shattered when she learns of \u003cb\u003eJosette\u003c\/b\u003e, an older sister she never knew existed-a goddess of discord, locked away for eons by their mother, the retired enchantress \u003cb\u003eVictoria Malcrude\u003c\/b\u003e.

Along the way, she'll clash with Dr. Injustice's robo-wrestlers, Hedrix the cyber-seer, and ancient guardians who claim she is both savior and destroyer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut the Codex is rewriting her body and her mind, awakening the \u003cb\u003eDark Queen\u003c\/b\u003e-a second self that hungers for the throne.
