Cross

In this seven-issue Dark Horse series from the mid-1990s, writer Andrew Vachss orchestrates a unique crossover event that brings together pulp and adventure icons like Indiana Jones, Doc Savage, Tarzan, and The Shadow's Lamont Cranston, alongside Dark Horse’s own Concrete and Sin City’s Dwight McCarthy. Assembling a rotating team of artists including Geof Darrow, Dave Stevens, and Dean Williams, the series threads these disparate characters through a shared, gritty narrative. It stands as a fascinating, era-specific experiment in corporate crossover storytelling, uniting licensed properties with creator-owned figures under a single, hardboiled sensibility.
