Syndicate Comics & Collectibles Exclusive Variant by Deegan Puchkors for The Darkness #1. 

In a world consumed by shadows... one man becomes The Darkness. Jackie Estacado is back! Thrust into a supernatural war between the dark and the light in a no-holds-barred adventure where the edge of our reality grinds against supernatural forces grappling for control over each other and the waking world.

Mafia Hitman Jackie Estacado was both blessed and cursed on his 21st birthday when he became the bearer of The Darkness, an elemental force that allows those who wield it access to an otherworldly dimension and control over the demons who dwell there. Forces in the world rise up to face Jackie and the evil his gift represents. There is one small problem in this story...evil is good.

From co-creator Marc Silvestri (The Darkness, Cyber Force, Batman and the Joker: The Deadly Duo) with the universe-shattering first issue art by Ed Benes (Birds of Prey, Superman, Justice League of America) , followed in issue #2 with ongoing series artist Raymond Gay (Gunslinger Spawn, Bloodletter, TMNT, Medieval Spawn), comes an explosive new era of  The Darkness!
