Synopsis
THIS IS THE GREATEST STORY EVER TOLD! In the quiet Mexican town of Pasito, the future is born. A man dies; a fool and braggart, best forgotten. In his stead, a legend arises: the man in the bloodstained mask, the Saint of Ghosts. El Sombra! Yearning for justice against the Nazis that plundered his home, El Sombra will cut a swath across the world. He will hunt his enemy to the streets of Manhattan – home of the mighty Doc Thunder, the terrible Blood Spider, and all the monsters and gods who fight beside them – and finally into the heart of the Ultimate Reich itself! Thrill at the legend! Follow a story as vast as the whole world, from the beginning of the human race to the end of the time! He defies man! He defies death! Nothing can stop him! VIVA EL SOMBRA! ‘Al Ewing's imagination is an unleashed force of nature.’ Kieron Gillen ‘One of the best superhero pastiches I’ve ever read... not something I ever expected to find outside of an Alan Moore graphic novel.’ Pornokitsch ‘The creative appropriation and relentless inventiveness never flags... From the opening pages to the overall theme (which surprises and delights), this is a book where ingenuity meshes with smart pulp fiction.’ SF Site
