About the author
Garth Ennis's signature writing style - a combination of dark yet humorous and hopeful material - has developed a large cult following over the years. He graduated from the school of 2000AD after taking over the reins of Judge Dredd, British Comics most recognizable character, from legend and Judge Dredd creator John Wagner. With credits that range from HELLBLAZER to HITMAN and PREACHER to Punisher, Garth Ennis has become one of the most popular talents in the industry.
Summary
The criminal underworld of New York City is a dark and
brutal place, but it's never seen horror like
this...
In the opening salvo of this best-selling
series created by industry legends MARC SILVESTRI and GARTH ENNIS, up-and-coming
mobster Jackie Estacado discovers a nightmarish new inheritance - the
supernatural power known only as the Darkness! Weighing his conscience against
the ability to mould the shadows to his will, Jackie finds himself dealing with
worse than the usual wiseguys: an ancient cult, an angelic archenemy, and the
corrupting consequences of the demonic entity empowering
him.
All this and more, gorgeously rendered and
painstakingly assembled in the first of a series of absolute collected
editions
