<\/p>\n

As revealed at Comic Book Resources<\/a>, Valiant is proud to present your first lettered look inside\u00a0SHADOWMAN (2018) #2<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 the second pulse-pounding chapter of\u00a0THE POWERFUL NEW ONGOING SERIES<\/strong>\u00a0from superstar writer\u00a0Andy Diggle<\/strong>\u00a0(Green Arrow: Year One, Daredevil<\/em>) and incendiary artist\u00a0Stephen Segovia<\/strong>\u00a0(NINJAK,\u00a0Action Comics<\/em>)! On\u00a0April 25th<\/span><\/span><\/strong>, Jack Boniface returns to the front lines of the Valiant Universe to protect the world of the living from the supernatural forces that seek to do it harm, as the next stunning, 30-page installment of\u00a0\u201cFEAR OF THE DARK\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Diggle and Segovia\u2019s opening story arc \u2013 revives old horrors from deep within the Deadside to challenge him\u2026<\/p>\n

Jack Boniface has only just returned home to New Orleans\u2026but the Deadside won\u2019t let him stay gone! From across the veil of life and death, the malignant presence of Baron Samedi \u2013 a ravenous voodoo deity bent on consolidating power at all costs \u2013 now seeks to infiltrate the mortal plane and claim the legacy of Shadowman for himself! But even as Jack and Alyssa marshal a defense to Samedi\u2019s inhuman agenda, a monstrous new force \u2013 driven by killer instinct and a rabid hatred of\u00a0Shadowman \u2013 is about to turn the Big Easy\u2019s back alleys into a hunting ground\u2026<\/p>\n

In the tradition of\u00a0X-O MANOWAR\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0BLOODSHOT REBORN,<\/strong>\u00a0the must-read ongoing series of 2018 stalks forward as Andy Diggle and Stephen Segovia exorcise their demons on\u00a0April 25th<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/strong>in\u00a0SHADOWMAN #2<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 featuring covers by\u00a0Tonci Zonjic<\/strong>\u00a0(Who is Jake Ellis?<\/em>),\u00a0Renato Guedes<\/strong>\u00a0(BLOODSHOT SALVATION),\u00a0Juan Jos\u00e9 Ryp<\/strong>\u00a0(BRITANNIA, NINJA-K), and\u00a0Ben Templesmith\u00a0<\/strong>(30 Days of Night<\/em>)!<\/p>\n

But first: The saga begins on\u00a0March 28th<\/span><\/span>\u00a0in\u00a0SHADOWMAN #1\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 the\u00a0FIRST ISSUE<\/strong>\u00a0of\u00a0\u201cFEAR OF THE DARK,<\/strong>\u201d a tense and gripping three-issue introduction pushing Jack Boniface to the farthest edge of fear itself\u2026and into a startling fight for survival as Shadowman takes command of the birthright he was born to uphold!<\/p>\n

Don’t fear your demons… Fight them! Orphaned as a child and raised on the margins of society, Jack Boniface never knew his place in the world. Until he discovered it waiting for him\u2026 in a darkness far older than the reign of men\u2026<\/p>\n

Unbeknownst to him, Jack was fated to become the next in a long lineage of Shadowmen \u2013 mortals bound to violent voodoo spirits of immense power \u2013 that could safeguard our world against incursions from realms beyond.<\/p>\n

For years, he struggled to control the loa\u2019s murderous urges \u2013 a battle he eventually lost.<\/p>\n

But now, after years of self-imposed exile, the man once known as Shadowman is returning home to sharpen the weapon within\u2026and unleash a reckoning on the evils of our world that will soon send shockwaves through heaven and hell alike\u2026<\/p>\n

On\u00a0March 28th<\/span><\/span><\/strong>, Andy Diggle and Stephen Segovia prepare their onslaught on the Valiant Universe when \u201cFEAR OF THE DARK\u201d begins in\u00a0SHADOWMAN (2018) #1<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 featuring covers by\u00a0Tonci Zonjic\u00a0<\/strong>(Lobster Johnson<\/em>), Renato Guedes (Wolverine<\/em>),\u00a0Juan Jos\u00e9 Ryp<\/strong>\u00a0(BRITANNIA), and\u00a0Travel Foreman<\/strong>\u00a0(Animal Man, The Ultimates<\/em>)!<\/p>\n
