Black Cross by Chris Warner – Comics That Deserve a Second (Or First) Look

Black Cross by Chris Warner

Black Cross took place in a violent future where the United States had become a battle ground and areas outside of safe zones were similar to the wild west.  The series was created, written and drawn by Chris Warner.

Black Cross was popular enough to spin-off into a mini-series, a couple of stand alone short comic stories and a one-shot. At one point, Black Cross was close to becoming a big screen feature with Howie Long in the title role. At about the same time another Black Cross mini-series was in the works called “My War.”  Neither it nor the movie ever happened.

Sadly, there’s never been a Black Cross omnibus.  Fans deserve a nice hardcover compilation of all the Black Cross material that Dark Horse published over the years.  Hopefully one day we’ll get one.  Until then Chris Warner’s Black Cross deserves a second (or first) look.
