The Grackle

Mike Baron and Paul Gulacy teamed up for this four-issue series from Acclaim/Valiant, launching in 1997. The Grackle introduces a gritty, street-level antihero navigating a corrupt urban landscape, blending Baron's sharp storytelling with Gulacy's distinctive, cinematic art. Though brief, the series stands as a notable example of Valiant's late-'90s expansion into darker, more character-driven crime comics.
