The Crow: Special Edition

By James O'Barr

The definitive edition of the classic graphic novel—including never-before-seen material and a new introduction by the author. When James O’Barr poured the pain and anguish of a personal tragedy into the drawings that comprise The Crow, his intensely cathartic story of Eric—who returns from the dead to avenge his and his fiancée’s murder at the hands of a street gang—resonated with readers around the world. Now, the illustrated tale that became the “thrilling” (Los Angeles Daily News) and “spectacular” (Chicago Tribune) screen triumph is re-released in an expanded version the author originally intended, complete at last with: —Thirty pages of never-before-seen artwork, including a new closing segment, “Sparklehorse,” and the touching new scene, “An August Noel” —A new Introduction by James O’Barr —Lost sequences restored using the artist’s original technique This is The Crow like you’ve never seen it before—the powerful journey of an avenging angel and a celebration of true love...as fierce, intelligent, and unforgettable as when it was first conceived. Suggested for mature readers.

I didn’t know anything about The Crow except that Brandon Lee was tragically killed on set. I haven’t seen the movie which is crazy because it seems like something 14 year old me would have been all over. Now that I’ve read this, I will make plans to finally watch the movie. Interesting, sad story. Beautiful art.
