Zorro (2008) #1 (Cover A)

by Matt Wagner & Francesco Francavilla Dynamite presents the return of yet another Legend as Matt Wagner unveils the all-new Zorro! Writer, Art Director and cover artist Matt Wagner is in command of this all-new 'year one' Zorro comic series. Similar in tone and scope to Dynamite's acclaimed Lone Ranger series, Zorro features artist Francesco Francavilla who complements Wagner's pulp-action writing! Created in 1919 by pulp writer Johnston McCulley, Zorro made his first appearance in 'The Curse of Capistrano,' serialized in the pulp magazine All-Story Weekly. From there Zorro has been the star of countless films and has been noted by Bob Kane as a main influence on Batman - Bruce Wayne even went to see The Mark of Zorro the evening his parents were killed! - and recently featured in a best-selling novel by Isabel Allende! Joining Wagner - who also provides covers for the series (50%) - and Francavilla for the return of the legendary Zorro are cover artists Mike Mayhew and Dean White (25%) and Lone Ranger cover artist John Cassaday (25%)!
