“Black Cross” Should be a TV Series

That’s Chris Warner’s character Black Cross who appeared in Dark Horse Presents #1 (the very first comic published by Dark Horse).  

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.

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 or the movie ever happened.

Dark Horse should create a nice hardcover compilation of all the Black Cross material that they’ve published over the years.  In the mean time, someone should option the character for a tv series.  That might inspire Chris Warner to come back and create more Black Cross comics.
