About the series
John Ostrander and Timothy Truman returned to the gritty, sword-and-sorcery-meets-Chicago streets of Cynosure for this IDW revival, with Tom Mandrake joining as co-artist across its eight-issue run. Picking up threads from the original First Comics series, this 2005–2007 mini-series deepened the mythos of its scarred, wisecracking protagonist while Truman and Ostrander—alongside Mike Gold—reasserted the title's signature blend of noir, action, and dark fantasy. A vital chapter for longtime fans, it proved the character's world still had sharp edges and fresh stories to tell.
