Count Dante: The Unauthorized (But Sort of True) Story of the Deadliest Man Who Ever Lived

From 2023 onward, Scout Comics presents this six-issue miniseries that offers a playful, unauthorized take on the real-life martial arts showman John Keehan, who dubbed himself "Count Dante" and claimed the title of the deadliest man alive. Written by J. C. Barbour with art by Wes Watson, the comic blends fact and fabrication to explore the colorful, controversial legend of a Chicago-based karate master who staged televised death matches and marketed his own "Dim Mak" fighting style. It's a lively, irreverent tribute to a cult figure whose bombastic persona and mysterious legacy have fascinated martial arts enthusiasts for decades.
