Way to kill the readers' interest in the new comic. The previous issue of Shadowman was a chapter 6 of Unity crossover. This one is chapter 14... We barely know about the whole voodoo thing, Jack and his powers. We didn't even have time to decide whether it's a good comic, or not. And yet, we're forced to forget about the entire Shadowman thing and read all that Unity stuff. I mean, come on! If you don't want to tell us about your new character, why did you even bother to start the new comic?! It was nice to see Archer & Armstrong, but Jack goes wa-a-ay too deep into all this for a young character who wasn't even properly established in his own comic yet. That's what this issue is all about - a lot of wrong decisions.

the TPB Shadowman includes issues 1-3 and 6 -- issues 4 & 5 are UNITY issues, and therefore are not included.
