Someone has poisoned Manhattan’s water supply and is turning both humans and animals in to de-evolved monsters and beasts. Only the Black Bat and his assembled team, Phantom Detective, Domino Lady, I.V. Frost and Nighthawk, can hope to stem the nightmare tide and save their city before it is too late. 

RETAILER INCENTIVE: If you purchase 3 or more of Guns of the Black Bat #2, you can purchase a variant…AND you get one variant free!

We'd seen the regular cover quite some time ago (though I believe at the time it was said to be the cover for the third issue) but it looks great with the header. And the variant follows the close-up style used for the first issue.

Well ain't this a thing of beauty (lifted from the Black Bat Facebook page)!

Coming later this year from Moonstone Comics - GUNS OF THE BLACK BAT from writer Ron Fortier. This cover is by artist Michael Stribling.

"Later this year" is more vague than I'd like (by necessity, no doubt) but seeing a cover for it makes it feel a little more real. This may be the project I'm most looking forward to in 2015. Seeing my favourite pulp character be the straw that stirs the drink, as it were, is an exciting prospect. Bring it on, Mr. Fortier and Moonstone.
