It’s hard not to look at Frank Frazetta’s masterpiece Death Dealer and wonder who exactly he is and where he came from.
Atop his ebony stallion, dressed in black, holding a bloodstained axe, with his face unseen and his eyes glowing red, the Death Dealer clearly means business.
Is he a man, a monster, a god?
With the blessing of the artist himself, the creative team of Nat Jones, Jay Fotos and Joshua Ortega will try to set the record straight in this six-issue miniseries, revealing how this mysterious figure appears in times of war and, without choosing sides, slays all in his path.
But how does this killing machine, now long unseen, tie into the murder of a young boy named Haden?
Slick art and a cool premise make this series one to watch.
