Shadowman Vol 1 9

Wow - it just hit me like a freight train at full steam. I'm going to die. Seven years, then my ticket gets punched. Man, I never thought about this before. I used to think I'd live forever. I don't want to die. I don't want to die. I don't want to die. No matter what choices I make, it seems they'll never changed the course my life is taking.

Synopsis[]

Shadowman learns that the "Soul-eater," Emil Sosa, is back in the business. Until he hunts down this child-murdering fiend, Jack will know no peace! Sosa anticipates Shadowman's first attack, and drives him off. Knowing he's not fated to die until 1999, Shadowman fearlessly attacks once more. When the battle is over, Sosa's mansion burns to the ground with Sosa trapped inside!^[1]

Surprise, idiots! Welcome to hell.

So, Mr Boniface, you laugh in de face o'danger once again. Well, there's somet'in I shoulda tol' you, chere. P'raps your new fearlessness is unfounded... a man can never know de moment of his death. De fates is fickle. De future is nevah certain. 'til it becomes de present... and your world, Shadowman, is much darker than your tiny senses tell you.
