The Item for sale is for one (1) copy of the comic book "Shadow, Vol. 2 #4 - Blood & Judgement, pt 4".
The Shadow is a fictional crime fighter created by Walter B Gibson. The character is one of the most famous of the pulp heroes of the 1930s and 1940s. Made even more famous through a popular radio series, the Shadow has since been featured also in comic books, comic strips,television, and at least seven motion pictures. Regardless, the Shadow is best regarded for its radio years, in which pulp crime fiction received perhaps its most compelling broadcast interpretation.
In the early eighties, Howard Chaykin set comics on their ear with the ground-breaking American Flagg!, a series that didn't just synthesize many of his themes into one cohesive work, but also brought page design, lettering and space into the overall effect of a book in a way that few had attempted. In the mid-eighties, DC tapped Chaykin to reinterpret the classic pulp hero The Shadow for a modern audience.
Even after decades, the unmistakable introduction from The Shadow has earned a place in the American lexicon: "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!"

Time-Less-Image is proud to offer items from our collection of comic books, graphic novels and original comic art. Both my brother Tom and I have been lifelong readers, collectors and fans of comics since early childhood. I actually remember paying $ 0.05 for my new issue comics! Classic Illustrated books introduced me to some of the American and European classics. Tom owned "Comics, Legends & Lore" a comic book store in Lynn, Massachussetts during the 80's. He was active at all the trade shows and conventions. Together we hope to bring our knowledge and enthusiasm to the virtual comic world on Ebay.
Our objective at Time Less Image is to offer the public unique, affordable, original fine art note cards & prints. Additionally, we will be offering original comic book art, comic books and graphic novels from our collection.
Sincerely,
Jack Egan
