Matt Wagner — High Flyin’
The Shadow Year One, #7, January 2014
Continuing our ongoing series celebrating multiple anniversaries for the classic pulp character, The Shadow.
Here is another great Matt Wagner cover, from the same terrific Shadow “origin” series as the last one.
So great, it ended up as the cover of the collection of the entire series as well.
So, I think we should, and will in fact, let this superb cover stand on its own without additional dissection.
For more on Matt and his interest in the character and other legends of the pulp era, click here.
Also definitely worth checking out are the exhaustive Shadow Chronology, available at a very reasonable price from Amazon, and Walter Gibson’s (out of print, unfortunately) Shadow Scrapbook, a nice first person history.
