Calling all fans of the swashbuckling legend, Zorro! Acclaimed artist Sean Gordon Murphy is bringing his unique vision to the masked vigilante in a fresh new take titled "Zorro: Man of the Dead" - and you can get the first four issues with stunning Cover A art by Murphy himself!
This isn't your grandpappy's Zorro. Murphy, known for his work on DC Comics' "Batman: White Knight," throws a modern twist on the classic hero. Imagine a blend of Don Quixote's idealism with the brutal reality of the drug cartels depicted in shows like Narcos. That's the world you're stepping into with "Zorro: Man of the Dead."
Our protagonist is Diego, a young man forever marked by a childhood trauma - witnessing the murder of his parents by the ruthless drug cartel. To cope with this tragedy, Diego embraces the legend of Zorro. He dons the mask, trains with a sword, and vows to become the protector his people need against the Narcos.
Zorro Man Of The Dead #1
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.
Zorro Man Of The Dead #2
Zorro has returned! Well, kind of. Diego has shown that the spirit of Zorro flows through him and has left a trail of ne'er-do wells in his wake. But now Rosa must try to save her brother who believes he is the protector of La Vega, as El Rojo will certainly be hunting for the legendary Zorro now. But Diego isn't going anywhere without Bandido. Hop in Rosa's El Camino, and prepare for the next swashbuckling chapter in Sean Murphy's electric story of the man in black.
Zorro Man Of The Dead #3
El Rojo and the Cartel have had enough of Diego and his delusions. There will never be a return of Zorro, and they will punish anyone who disagrees. But even Rosa is having a hard time dismissing Zorro as anything more than a myth, as her brother relentlessly inspires hope across all of Le Vega. Things are getting dangerous FAST as Zorro, Rosa, Tomás, Bandito and Tornado dash to stop the decimation El Rojo is planning for all who dare stand against him. Are whips and swords enough? I can't help but believe in El Zorro!
Zorro Man Of The Dead #4
The arrival of Zorro might have inspired La Vega into rebelling, but that hope is dashed as Diego suffers a big defeat. With his sister captured, Diego has no choice but to give up the fight and reveal the truth about his past to El Rojo, hoping that his surrender will save Rosa and the rest of the villagers. But while Diego might have lost faith in the legend of Zorro, this friends haven't! Be sure to order this big finale with 27 PAGES OF ART from Sean Murphy.
