One man's battle to purge his city of the organized crime consuming its soul is the story told in Blackmask comic boooks, a compelling psychological crime drama with a super-hero twist. Set right after the Korean War, Blackmask is the tale of a man who conceals his features in an executioner's hood, a mask once worn by his one-time torturer. He starts out doing the right things for the right reasons, but with every successful strike against the mob, something dark and cruel inside him claws its way closer to the surface of his scarred psyche.
