THE DUSK
Blackstone—a city whose history dates back to the earliest days of our nation. Below its abandoned skyscrapers and crumbling colonial architecture, beneath the buzzing lights and ragged billboards, the metropolis is propped up by corruption and fear. Blackstone public defender Jaime Nuñez—former baseball hero, now a divorced dad—is always trying to do his best. But the criminal justice system is not without limits. When Jaime comes into an unexpected fortune and some surprising, super heroic tools, he discovers there might be another, more direct way to do some actual good in the world. But can the masked man known only as The Dusk push back against decades of entrenched corruption without compromising his commitment to social justice?
For The Dusk, Alex has teamed up with amazing collaborators. Writer Elizabeth Little is a best-selling and award-winning author of crime fiction. Eisner-nominated artist David Hahn has illustrated comic books for over 20 years, including titles from both DC and Marvel. Rounding out their team is colorist Ellie Wright (Red Sonja, Green Hornet) and letterer Taylor Esposito (Red Hood, Constantine).
Issue #1 will be coming in January 2024. It features a cover by Pete Woods, a critically hailed artist who has worked on Deadpool and Superman, among many other popular titles.
Volume 1 of The Dusk (a graphic novel) will release on March 26, 2024.
