| Shadowman #4 Cover A by Jon Davis-Hunt |
In Shadowman #4, a stranger walks the streets of London, England.
He leaves death behind.
Jack Boniface, aka Shadowman, senses these strange killings, and tracks them to their source.
Baron Samedi, his travel buddy on their quest to cure the Blights, or the torn veils between our world and the Deadside, confirms their otherworldly origin.
In what seems an average street in London, one house has been abandoned.
Left to decay.
In Shadowman #4, Jack ponders the ways of Humanity, and how we invite sickness and evil into our lives.
He notes the dangers of trying to escape reality, and relying on artificial means of support instead of standing on your own two feet.
In Shadowman #4, Jack thinks...and contemplates...and ruminates...
And yet, Shadowman #4 abounds with action (and great lettering).
The issue features beautiful art, rich in color and detail.
And we finally learn the identity of the woman Jack has glimpsed in previous issues.
Shadowman #4 closes off the the current story arc with a bang, while tantalizing us with what is yet to come. It combines Cullen Bunn's meditations on morality with the glorious artwork of Jon Davis-Hunt, the sumptuous coloring of Jordie Bellaire, and the stylized lettering of Clayton Cowles. It boasts two double-page spreads (Two!) that will--without the assistance of illegal drugs--blow your mind.
You must buy it. There is no other option.
