“I can't tell you how happy I am to be working with Maria again, while being all melancholy at the same time,” said Azzarello. “I'm sorry for what we're about to do to you, Faith. This is the end, beautiful friend.” 

Maria Llovet is a multidisciplinary artist from Barcelona, who has published four graphic novels, including Heartbeat with BOOM! Studios, There’s Nothing There, and Loud.

“I'm thrilled that we're back with FAITHLESS III, I'm so proud of being part of this already iconic series. Many readers have reached out to me saying they're highly anticipating this final arc. I think they won't be disappointed!” said Llovet.
