Zatanna’s past and present collide in a brand-new series by Eisner Award-winning writer Mariko Tamaki (Harley Quinn: Breaking Glass, I Am Not Starfire) and Javier Rodríguez!

After a deadly mistake left her terrified of her own abilities, Zatanna found a home for herself in Las Vegas performing a free show full of sleight-of-hand and cheap card tricks at the crappiest casino on the strip. It’s not exactly glamourous—or heroic—but it sure beats the risk of dabbling in real magic! That is, until a mysterious stranger plunges Zatanna’s world into chaos, dredging up old wounds and cracking open an inter-dimensional rift in the process!  

Now, Zatanna will have to face her fears and embrace her powers whether she wants to or not! But will the magic words do the trick, or will it all collapse around her like a house of cards?  

This volume collects Zatanna: Bring Down The House #1-5.
