Black Phoenix Volume Three – Is That A Costume You’re Wearing?
A collection of long and short form comics, Rich Tommaso’s one-man comics anthology magazine, Black Phoenix!
Black Phoenix is, at its core, a contemporary comics magazine featuring original characters and stories of various comics genres—all dreamed up by its sole author, Rich Tommaso.
This third digest volume concludes the Golden Age era with costumed adventures of the super-hero and Halloween themed variety. Featuring: Yearling Masked Detective, Mischief Night with Pete and Miriam, and introducing: Black Phoenix, Defender of the Innocent!
Inspired by the crime and horror films of the 1970s – 1980s, artist/writer Rich Tommaso has effectively utilized those influences in his first two original titles at Image, DARK CORRIDOR and SHE WOLF. Having grown up during these same time periods, he’s also been able to draw from his own life experiences to elevate and personalize his comics while simultaneously working within those classic genres.
“There’s more pure energy in this thing than any other comic this year. I could have read a thousand pages of this.” – Matt Seneca, The Comics Journal
“It’s everything fun in a certain tendency in sequential art, bursting forth from one container that can scarcely keep the lid on.” – Broken Frontier
