Editorial Review: Product Description: I am powerful. I am immortal. I can do anything. I am cursed. I am ... The Darkness. Fan favorite artist, Marc Silvestri, teams up with award winning writer, Garth Ennis, to tell the tale of a dark legacy fulfilled. On his 21st birthday, mafia hitman, Jackie Estacado inherits a weapon of vast power-The Darkness. An other-worldly suit of armor that manifests demons to do his bidding. Volume II - Sibling rivalry is taken to new level when the sister Jackie has always hated is granted the power to destroy The Darkness. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Oh Jackie OA character with a curse on him. Part of his curse means bad things will happen if he begets a child. Jackie's mob boss's daughter comes home to Daddy with the ambition to help out with the family business. Meanwhile, a groupie explains to Jackie a way for him to have sex that absolutely won't result in pregnancy. You have to read the book to find out Jack's reaction.

He finds himself under attack by some winged, angelic-like creatures when suddenly his body is gripped by a tremendous power...the power of "The Darkness". Jackie uses it to destroy the creatures and finds he can use it to create armor, razor ... Read More Rating:  - Has PotentialI tried to get into the Darkness for some odd reason. Some of the stories have potential and the art is good. But then it gets to wrapped up in being sexually gratitous. I mean c'mon a character who will die if he sleeps with a woman? I enjoy comic books, like Johnny the Homicidal Maniac and I adored the X-men in the eighties and Batman. But a lot of comics have gone down the drain, they rely more on drawing pinup girls then working on a solid, fun, entertaining story. Damn shame... Top Cow is guilty ...
