The Shade #[nn]
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis collection brings together the 2012-2013 miniseries spotlighting the Shade, the enigmatic and centuries-old master of shadow from the DC Universe. Written by James Robinson with art by Cully Hamner and others, the story delves into the character's mysterious past and his reluctant return to a life of danger.
In "Birthday," writer James Robinson and artist Cully Hamner deliver a haunting, character-driven tale as the Shade—haunted by the anniversary of his own creation in October—considers a change of pace after taking Hope’s advice. Before he can begin his journey, Deathstroke arrives with chilling precision, leaving the Shade’s fate hanging in the balance. Cover by Tony Harris captures the moment’s tension with stark, evocative detail.
The Shade, uneasy in the shadow of his October "creation" anniversary, takes Hope O'Dare’s advice to seek a change of pace—only to be intercepted by Deathstroke, who delivers a brutal, unexpected end before the adventure can begin.
Shade is pulled back into a web of old secrets when Will von Hammer reaches out with a warning: the Caldecott family is hunting him, driven by a bloodlust tied to a loss from the 1800s. With Hope O'Dare and Bete-Noire watching his back and Bobo [Jake Bennetti] caught in the crossfire, Shade must confront a past that refuses to stay buried.
