    Short summary describing this issue.

    Empire, Parts 1-3 last edited by KillerZ on 01/24/24 07:43AM View full history

    Now you can see The Darkness in a whole new light in this pristine, black-and-white presentation of artist Michael Broussard’s pencil work. No inking, no coloring. Broussard’s work is laid bare in this unique collection of the first three issues of this new volume.

    Jackie Estacado, the current wielder of The Darkness power, joins forces with a brilliant scientist, who teaches the former Mob boss how to turn his curse into a blessing. Together, the duo overthrow a small South American country and turn its people into addicts of Nightfall, a synthetic drug made from The Darkness. But what Jackie doesn’t know is that the professor has a sinister, ulterior motive that will turn The Darkness powers against him, and he’ll be lucky if he gets out of this alive!

    Even if you’ve read these issues before you’ll appreciate how Broussard, under Marc Silvestri’s guidance, has matured into a talented penciler in his own right.

    Mmmm...Raw Darkness 0

    I'm torn between the beauty of colored comics versus the "raw" nature of the black and white comics.  I've usually preferred colored comics but from an artist's point of view, there's really something about seeing a penciled version.  I have already reviewed these issues.  Phil Hester and Michael Broussard have won me over and converted me into becoming a Darkness fan.  The issues reprinted here offer a new direction for Jackie that takes him out of his element.  He's not in the typical mob sett...
