Scott Allie (W), Mario Guevara (P), Dave Stewart (C), John Cassaday (Cover), and Laura Martin (Cover Colors) Miniseries 'It has fallen upon me, now and again in my sojourns through the world, to ease various evil men of their lives.' Mysteries emerge during Solomon Kane's stay in the Castle of the Devil-the beasts that prey upon the local peasantry make their presence known, and another body is discovered. Kane begins to doubt the legends about the ancient chapel beneath the castle. Did a devil-worshiping monk really die there at the hands of his brothers, or was there something even more sinister afoot? And what lives down there now? Expands upon Robert E. Howard's unfinished 'Castle of the Devil.' 'With art and writing that perfectly captures the pulp weirdness of his birth, Solomon Kane officially becomes the only Puritan I've ever been a fan of. Don't miss out on these weird tales, you'll regret it.' -Ed Brubaker (Award-winning writer of Captain America, Criminal, and Iron Fist) FC, 32 pages Cover price $2.99.

Issue #3
Published Nov 2008 by Dark Horse.$3.80
Scott Allie (W), Mario Guevara (P), Dave Stewart (C), and John Cassaday (Cover) With more dead bodies discovered around the fabled Castle of the Devil, the determined Puritan adventurer Solomon Kane and his new ally John Silent look for answers in a pile of ancient bones buried deep in the abbey beneath Baron von Staler's fortress. The Baroness is missing, and the Baron accuses Solomon Kane. Tempers flare, and blades are drawn-but the real monster remains unseen. o Expanding upon Robert E. Howard's unfinished 'Castle of the Devil' story. 'Solomon Kane is one of the toughest Robert E. Howard heroes to adapt to the comics page, but Scott Allie and Mario Guevara have done a stunning job. Unsettling, moody and eerily beautiful, their Kane is absolutely worthy of his creator.' -Kurt Busiek Solomon Kane © 2008 Solomon Kane Inc. ('SKI').

Scott Allie (W), Mario Guevara (P), Dave Stewart (C), and John Cassaday (Cover) An action-filled frenzy! With his host wounded-and bodies piling up in both the Black Forest and the Castle of the Devil-Solomon Kane tries to keep himself and his deceptively simple companion, John Silent, from quick deaths on the gallows. The lovely, scheming Mahasti is missing, supernatural horrors lurk in the forest, and Baron von Staler becomes a bit unhinged. Expanding upon Robert E. Howard's unfinished 'Castle of the Devil' story, writer Scott Allie (Devil's Footprints, Star Wars: Empire), newcomer Mario Guevara (The Lone Ranger and Tonto), and coloring visionary Dave Stewart (Umbrella Academy, Hellboy) deliver a compelling, horror-filled adventure that is faithful to Howard's original Solomon Kane work. 'Solomon Kane is one of the toughest Robert E. Howard heroes to adapt to the comics page, but Scott Allie and Mario Guevara have done a stunning job.

Issue #5
Published Feb 2009 by Dark Horse.$3.00
Scott Allie (W), Mario Guevara (P), Dave Stewart (C), and John Cassaday (Cover) The Castle of the Devil hides several secrets-the most horrible of which may still be locked at the base of the castle in the ruins of an ancient abbey. Solomon Kane gets closer to unveiling the truth behind the crazed monks who used to live there, as he deals with the castle's current batch of strange inhabitants. Escaping with John Silent, his wounded companion, is out of the question, because Kane also seeks justice for the souls of innocent children who were killed on the gallows that litter this evil, tainted region of Germany's Black Forest. 'With art and writing that perfectly captures the pulp weirdness of his birth, Solomon Kane officially becomes the only Puritan I've ever been a fan of. Don't miss out on these weird tales, you'll regret it.' -Ed Brubaker The story rolls into a shocking finale! FC, 32 pages Cover price $2.99.
