Blackmark 30th Anniversary Edition

Plot

Legendary comic artist Gil Kane tells an epic sci-fi fantasy tale in the same vein as Spartacus and Gladiator.

In 1974, Gil Kane created Blackmark as a paperback series for Bantam Books. Kane was a comics artist specializing in super-heroes who had drawn every major character at DC and Marvel. Blackmark was his attempt to go "independent" and create a series which he could own, and whose creative direction he would control.

The first volume of this sword & sorcery/heroic fantasy narrative, designed and published in the paperback format, has been out of print for over 25 years, and the completed second volume was never published. Fantagraphics Books is proud to collect both volumes in a single trade book format, larger than the original paperback size to better showcase Kane's elegant line art!
