VALIANT ANNOUNCES SHADOWMAN

Valiant Entertainment has announced a November launch for Shadowman, an ongoing series written by Justin Jordan, with art by Patrick Zircher.

Here's how Valiant describes the series:

"There's a million dreams in the Big Easy. But now its worst nightmare is about to come true. As the forces of darkness prepare to claim New Orleans as their own, Jack Boniface must embrace the legacy he was born to uphold. As Shadowman, Jack is about to become the only thing that stands between his city and an army of unspeakable monstrosities from beyond the night. But is the mantle of Shadowman a blessing or a curse? And what is the true cost of his otherworldly power?"

"Shadowman is one of the most popular characters in the Valiant Universe and the fans have been asking me since day one when he's going to return," said Valiant executive editor Warren Simons. "Justin and Patrick have put together an action-packed debut that also adds an incredibly important new dimension to the Valiant Universe. And as Patrick's pages clearly demonstrate, he's one of the finest artists working in the medium today. We've got an amazing team at the helm of our fifth ongoing launch and I can't wait for the first issue to hit the stands."

The first issue will feature a standard cover by Zircher, with incentive variants by Eisner Award-winning industry icons Dave Johnson and Bill Sienkiewicz. Valiant is continuing its Pullbox Exclusive Variant program with a "blackout" cover by Zircher.
