The Darkness: Close Your Eyes Delves Into Jackie Estacado's Past

Jackie Estacado might be dead (at least for now), but Zero's Ales Kot joins Judge Dredd's Maro Oleksicki to deliver The Darkness: Close Your Eyes, a glimpse into the character's past, which will be released by Top Cow this June. There isn't much information to go on; all Image gave fans was "Los Angeles more than a hundred years ago: a different place, yet the sun still burns and the oilfields still flow. This is a story of another Estacado. This is a story of love. This is a story of death. Perfect for readers interested in jumping onto the long-running series or curious about the Top Cow Universe, The Darkness: Close Your Eyes provides the perfect sampler." "This is a story no-one told before," said Kot. "This is a missing piece of the puzzle that is the Darkness." The Darkness: Close Your Eyes arrives in stores on June 4, with a cover price of $3.99, and can be pre-ordered using Diamond Code APR140500.
