Kurt Sutter has announced the creation of a new series, Sisters of Sorrow, with comic book publisher BOOM! Studios. The prolific creator of television shows (Sons of Anarchy, The Bastard Executioner, upcoming Mayans MC) and feature films (Southpaw) is originating new content in the world of comic books first.

This new concept is the latest in a line of comic books and graphic novels from the top-rated Sutter at BOOM! Studios. Previously, Sutter supervised new, original stories in BOOM!’s hit Sons of Anarchy comic book series and launched an original miniseries, Lucas Stand, with the best-selling award-winning publisher.

Sisters of Sorrow is the story of four women, all victims of violent crimes, who unite to exact revenge on their perpetrators. By day, they are peaceful community activists in downtown LA. By night, they don bulletproof black leather under crisp white habits, strapped with state-of-the art weapons and the skills to use them.

Yep, nuns with guns, baby.

Sisters of Sorrow is set to debut in July 2017 at San Diego Comic-Con International.
