The Horseman #1 (Paperback)

The Four Horsemen are gone. Hector is what's left. The Horseman #1 restarts a broken soldier's war on crime, from Bane co-creator Chuck Dixon.

Hector, a former member of the elite black-ops unit known as the Four Horsemen, is a broken soldier struggling to adjust to civilian life after losing his team. When a mysterious message calls him back into action, a powerful tech mogul offers him a second chance at purpose.

But stepping back into the fight means taking on someone else's agenda along with his own―and the cost of the offer becomes clearer with every job. The series' first issue sets the modern direction for the character.

The first issue of the ongoing Horseman series, written by Bane co-creator Chuck Dixon―following the introduction in the original graphic novel and continuing into #2, #3, and the Definitive Horseman collection.

A clean jumping-on point that resets the character for the ongoing series, rewarding readers who met him in the original graphic novel while welcoming newcomers to the street-level corner of the Rippaverse.

From writer Chuck Dixon―co-creator of Bane and the writer behind landmark runs on Batman, The Punisher, Nightwing, and Conan. The Horseman is Dixon's creation for the Rippaverse line.
