SOLOMON KANE DEATHS BLACK RIDERS #1 (OF 4)

Taking place after the events in Solomon Kane: The Castle of the Devil — but written to stand on its own — this new series delves deep into the horrors scattered throughout Germany’s Black Forest. When Kane comes across gypsies being terrorized by roving bandits, he’s not sure what’s worse — the bandits who wish to rob and rape innocent travelers or the evils that spew forth from the forest, intent on killing every man and woman around! With creature designs by Eisner Award-winning artist Guy Davis, this series uses Robert E. Howard’s “Death’s Black Riders” fragment and the “Rattle of Bones” short story as springboards to launch into a suspenseful and terrifying new excursion with Howard’s troubled Puritan hero.

Dark Horse’s new Solomon Kane series features the return of writer Scott Allie and artist Mario Guevara (The Lone Ranger and Tonto), who are joined by colorist Juan Ferreyra (Rex Mundi) and cover artist Darick Robertson (The Boys, Transmetropolitan)!

“With art and writing that perfectly captures the pulp weirdness of his birth, Solomon Kane officially becomes the only Puritan I’ve ever been a fan of. Don’t miss out on these weird tales, you’ll regret it.” – Ed Brubaker

  1. Loved the last miniseries. Hope this is as good.

  2. Wonderful first issue in the new arc.  Thundering hooves, headlong rushes through a dark forest and lots of pulse pounding action.  Death’s Dark Riders gets off to an amazing start.

  3. It’s definately got a good atmosphere, but I found it confusing at times of who exactly was speaking and what was going on. Overall, not a bad first issue, though.

  4. Very confusing. Great monsters. Not enough Kane. Hopefully next issue remedies points 1 & 3, while keeping the 2 coming.
