THE NEW SHADOWHAWK

ShadowHawk Special #1, The New Shadowhawk #1-7, ShadowHunt, et. Al.

Paul Johnstone was dead, but ShadowHawk was not. Knowing that I wanted a new series, but not wanting to write it myself I turned to writer extraordinaire, Kurt Busiek.
Kurt came up with (as he is wont to do) a rather brilliant idea; ShadowHawk was, in fact, a Spirit of Justice that had inhabited many people throughout recorded history in many lands sometimes several individuals simultaneously.
This story started with another identity mystery and revealed that this time the spirit inhabited not one person, but four! (well, actually three people, the fourth turned out to be the robot we first met back in ShadowHawk #13). Kurt wove the mystery of the new ShadowHawks seamlessly through his introductions of the ShadowHawks of the past and brought everything to a stunning conclusion with the robot being the last man standing.
The saga of the robot ShadowHawk continued through five titles all released in the month of April in a story called ShadowHunt.
ShadowHunt #1 featured Chapter One and the story continued through Chapel v.II #7, Youngblood v.2 #7, Team Youngblood #22 and ended in New Man #4, with the robot being destroyed and the fate of the Spirit of Justice in new hands, yet again.
