THE SHADOW #1
Dynamite have hit the ground running with the relaunch of The Shadow, the comic based on the 1930’s pulp hero.
The title has garnered great reviews, including one from a certain ‘Biff’ who predicted it’s success in Illuminations:
“One of my all time favourite pulp characters that for some reason never quite made it to a continuing comic series, despite previous series shaving the likes of Mike Kaluta and Howard Chaykin on art. This is relaunched by Dynamite with Garth Ennis on scripts, a better choice I couldn’t think of. He always brings dark and gritty violence to his comics and The Shadow demands just that. Aaron Campbell is on art and as long as he hits the right ‘mood’ this series should be a winner.”
