About this title

Synopsis

A hardened team of imprisoned ex-cops -- each guilty of a different felony -- is offered a last chance at redemption in exchange for joining a clandestine strike force tasked with taking down an untouchable, corrupt sheriff. Following foot soldiers whose hands may be dirtier than the criminals they track down, Black Jackets is an edge-of-your seat ride through a duplicity-filled underworld in an elusive search for justice -- with a healthy dose of bullets, blood and sex along the way. Brought to you by Steven Grant (Punisher, Whisper, 2 Guns), Shane Riches (ha.i.ley) and Jesús Antonio Hernández Portaveritas (His Name Is... Savage!)

About the Author

Gil Kane co-created the modern-day versions of the superheroes Green Lantern and the Atom for DC Comics, and co-created Iron Fist and Morbius the Living Vampire for Marvel Comics. He was involved in such major storylines as that of The Amazing Spider-Man #96-98, which, at the behest of the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, bucked the then-prevalent Comics Code Authority to depict drug abuse, and ultimately spurred an update of the Code. Kane additionally pioneered an early graphic novel prototype, His Name Is... Savage, in 1968, and a seminal graphic novel, Blackmark, in 1971. In 1997, he was inducted into both the Will Eisner Comic Book Hall of Fame and the Harvey Award Jack Kirby Hall of Fame.
