Noir #5 early Solicitation

The solicitation below was among the "first look" at Dynamite's upcoming books for March 2014.  It appeared on comicvine.com.
Writer: Victor Gischler
Artist: Andrea Mutti

FINAL ISSUE! Lost in the labyrinth of the Templars and separated from the others, Miss Fury must outwit the demented Minerva and the Mohawk Akash. Meanwhile, The Black Sparrow has problems of her own. The sadistic Orlando has overdosed on Dr. Ravels super serum and he's out for blood. And just what is the lost treasure of the Templars that the Mohawks guard so jealously? Find out in the exciting conclusion of NOIR!


With the regular Miss Fury series coming to an end in February, it's easy to get the sense that this may be the last we see of this character for a while.  However, writer Victor Gischler made an interesting comment during an interview recently when asked about his dream line-up for Noir.
VG: I don't really know what the plans are beyond this first arc. But the real dream for a book like this is that the line-up could always be changing. Sparrow and Miss Fury this time ... maybe Miss Fury and Green Hornet next time. Or The Back Sparrow and Doc Savage. You could crack open a beer and daydream about the possibilities all day.
Sure could. I don't expect additional volumes of Noir, but there's nothing to suggest that a similar limited series could not appear in the future.  Dynamite has apparently developed a strategy along the lines of late, and Miss Fury's time-hopping aspect may make it easier to include her in any number of books.  So here's hoping.
