Dark Circle Comics Teases Upcoming The Hangman By Tieri And Ruiz
Dark Circle Comics has released this image for The Hangman by writer Frank Tieri and artist Felix Ruiz. The Hangman, launching later this year, will be a new take of the classic superhero character – but not in a way that readers expect.
The launch of The Black Hood #1 in February set a darker tone for the Dark Circle Comics imprint as a no-holds-barred, anything goes line of superhero comics. The Hangman "isn't a book for the squeamish," said editor Alex Segura, comparing it to "Quentin Tarantino adapting a Stephen King novel."
Frank Tieri is no stranger to the darker side of superheroes, having written Deadpool and Wolverine. . Tieri will team with Felix Ruiz (Wolverine: MAX) to tell stories about "the vile disgusting parts of ourselves we don't like to talk about." Tieri promises the book will be dark and gritty yet will also about seeking redemption.
