Tales of Penance: Trial of the Century is the first in a series of superhero/detective comics to be published by Arcana Comics. The masked vigilante Penance's private war on crime escalates to a national stage when a news camera crew captures evidence of the hero murdering a super-villain. Captured by the police, the subsequent trial of a masked superhero begins to dominate the nation's headlines as the country waits for a verdict in the self-proclaimed "trial of the century." However, the evidence does not line up for seasoned police detective LJ McCloud. As she begins the investigation, the media circus surrounding the case could leave the city of Atlanta and the entire south hanging in the balance, especially when a mob of vigilantes come seeking vengeance at the police station!
