    The Shadow

    Character » The Shadow appears in 532 issues.

    "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!" So, with a mocking laugh, says Kent Allard, the mysterious vigilante of pulp magazine legend known as The Shadow.

    Who should portray The Shadow?

    I've been thinking a lot of the scenario of if The Shadow were to return to the silver screen. The question that has been taunting me like a laugh from the dark detective, is who would portray him.

    So far, I've been leaning on Liam Neeson. But I would like to see what a community of comic book fans would think.

    So, who can strike fear into the hearts of men?

    @kiltro95: Mark Strong, Adrian Brody, Guy Pierce, Jon Hamm or if you wanted to go younger James Wolk would all make an excellent Shadow.

    Adrian Brody for sure... but since Holywood is Holywood, they will call The Rock.

    I liked what they did in the old Shadow movie - one actor portrayed Lamont Cranston, the other actor portrayed The Shadow.
