Shadowman #6 Unleashes a Darque Reckoning!
When the undead begin to attack throughout New Orleans, can the combined forces of Shadowman and Dr. Mirage repel an army that can’t be killed? Find out this April in Shadowman #6, the second chapter of “Darque Reckoning”, from acclaimed writer Justin Jordan and featuring the ever-awesome artwork of Patrick Zircher, Lee Garbett and Neil Edwards!
As Master Darque plans his escape from the Deadside, his earthly minions in the Brethren crime syndicate are building up their ranks and preparing the city for the second coming of their dark lord.
But their operations have gained the attention of a mysterious, pistol-packing assassin, who has been retaliating against the Brethren on behalf of a long-forgotten New Orleans deity named Baron Samedi, Lord of the Dead — a deity that Master Darque has just paid a visit to in the Deadside.
As the dead rise and unholy alliances are built, Jack Boniface is about to find out that the cost of becoming the Shadowman is always paid in blood — and that Master Darque plans to collect.
The Shadowman series is a favorite around the office. The artwork alone made us want to read the Darque Reckoning storyline in the first place. Coupling that with some truly impressive writing has created an amazing story and we can’t wait to see how all of this is going to end.
