The Shadow (3rd Series)

    (DC, 1986)
™ and ©1986 by the Conde Nast Publications, Inc.

Years had gone by since the Shadow had last appeared to strike terror into the hearts of evildoers. His network of operatives had gone on with their lives, and most were simply growing old.

The Shadow was gone, but he was hardly forgotten. An old enemy named Preston Mayrock had decided it was time to settle old scores. Although wheelchair bound himself, he sent his men on a gruesome murder spree of the Shadow’s old agents. But just when all seemed lost, the Shadow returned—and none will escape his vengeance.

Taking a break from his run on American Flagg, Howard Chaykin took on the task of remaking both the Shadow and venerable war hero Blackhawk. In doing so, he managed to add new depth to characters with almost a century of history between, them while still maintaining the classic elements which had made them so popular.
