The Darkness: Wanted Dead #1
"Wanted Dead" kicks off a high-stakes thriller in The Darkness: Wanted Dead #1, a 2003 Image Comics release that introduces a dangerous new chapter in the series. Written by Frank Tieri and brought to life with gritty precision by artist Mark Texeira—whose dynamic pencils and inks define the cover and interior—this issue follows two special agents assigned to protect mob informant Jackie Estacado, unaware that he’s far more than he appears. With a million-dollar bounty on his head, Jackie’s hidden powers promise a showdown that’s as unpredictable as it is intense.
