Not long after Image broke new ground as an independent comic book company in the early 1990s, many more companies followed suit--Malibu, Defiant, Innovation, Millennium--and Valiant Comics! Part of the appeal of Valiant was the revival of many of the Gold Key titles from the Bronze Age, such as Solar--Man of the Atom, Magnus: Robot Fighter and Turok, Dinosaur Hunter--but there were more stories--and titles--to come! This is an auction for a set of 9 issues of Shadowman--the voodoo hero of New Orleans! Here's a little more information about this series, courtesy of Valiant: The city of New Orleans has a long history of wild nightlife and Voodoo lore, but now the superstitious folk, pushers, and pimps whisper of a man in a carnival mask that prowls the night, savagely attacking the members of the New Orleans underworld. Jack Boniface is a saxophone player who, since the night that Lydia the Spider Alien poisoned him and left him for dead, has been overcome with the urge to seek and destroy evil, particularly drug pushers. Garbed in a costume provided by Anjenetta Grampion, his housekeeper and an expert in Voodoo who claims that a Voodoo Loa compels him, Jack becomes Shadowman. Shortly after learning of his imminent violent death in 1999, Jack engages in an ongoing, strangely intimate conflict against Master Darque, a powerful 19th Century necromancer. All four books are in Fine to Very Fine condition, with glossy covers, white pages and slight edge/spine wear. Additional information on individual issues available upon request.
