Zorro: Man of the Dead

"Diego is a young man who is convinced that he's Zorro. As a child, he suffered a psychotic break after witnessing the murder of his parents by the drug cartel in his village. To cope with the trauma, he embraced the 200-year-old legend of Zorro by donning the mask, training with the sword, and declaring war on the Narcos for the sake of his people."--Provided by publisher.

Publisher Marketing: "The story has a zing of its own, giving us a good reason why someone might face down heavily armed drug smugglers with only a sword and a horse."-- "MajorSpoilers.com" Review Quotes : "From adrenaline-fueled action scenes to poignant character moments, each panel is meticulously crafted to evoke emotion and intensity." -- "Comical Opinions" Biographical Note : After breaking into the industry at a young age, Sean Murphy made a name for himself in the world of indie comics. Writing and illustrating Punk Rock Jesus , Sean showed his versatility as a creator. While he is widely known for his work with some of the industry's top writers on titles like Joe the Barbarian , American Vampire , The Wake , Chrononauts and Tokyo Ghost , Sean especially enjoys writing for himself. His Batman: White Knight , Curse of the White Knight , and Beyond the White Knight story arcs have garnered critical and popular acclaim. Now it is time for Zorro: Man Of The Dead . Simon Gough is a UK based colourist, living on the sunny shores of Brighton by the sea. He lives a lonely existence from his tiny dark office, besieged through the day by the unanswerable questions of two pre-teen sons, and a wife who doesn't "understand" comics. He has art credits from DC to Zenescope, and everyone in between, and has worked on titles such as Batman , The Field , Ringside , and G.I Joe . Over the last 15 years he's forgotten more things he's worked on than he can actually remember.
