Hello everyone!
And welcome to MajestiComic's 40th episode!
In today's video, we are profiling a character who is much different than most of the comic
book superheroes you are used to.
This character is dark and mysterious, and shrouded in voodoo magic.
He is possessed by a spirit who uses his body to go out hunting at night, and to carry out
a destiny that he knew nothing about until one fateful night, when he met a stranger
named Lydia…
Shadowman first appeared in Valiant Comics X-O Manowar series, but got his own line of
comic books in 1992.
Created by writers Jim Shooter and Steve Englehart and artists Bob Layton and David Lapham, Shadowman
was one of Valiant Comics' first line of comics ever to go to print – and its most
successful.
Shortly after its debut, Shadowman was selling over one hundred thousand copies per month,
and in its second year in print, it outsold even some of the more famous comic books by
publishers like Marvel and DC Comics.
The Shadowman's story begins with a jazz musician named Jack Boniface.
He is playing the saxophone in his hometown of New Orleans, hoping to impress some producers
and get a record deal, when he notices that the same woman keeps coming to watch him play
every night.
Swept up by the thrill of romance, Jack speaks to her, and finds out that her name is Lydia.
They leave together, and Lydia takes Jack to her place, where she fixes him a drink.
Almost instantly, though, Jack realizes that something is wrong.
His head begins to spin, and he realizes that he has been drugged.
He falls unconscious, and is sure that he is dying, without even the slightest idea
why.
When he awakens the next morning, he finds that Lydia is nowhere to be found, but there
is an odd mark on his neck that wasn't there before.
Confused and angry, Jack takes to the streets, overwhelmed by an unnaturally strong desire
to hunt down Lydia and make her pay for what she did to him.
As he is searching for her, he finds a carnival mask in the street, and something deep inside
him is drawn to it.
He picks it up and puts it on, and continues on in his search.
Shortly after he finds the mask, he hears a woman screaming.
Rushing toward the sound, Jack finds that a man is assaulting a woman, and without thinking,
he jumps in to save her.
As he does, though, he finds once more that he really is not himself.
He now has a superhuman strength and speed that he hadn't had before, and he is able
to scare away the criminal with these new powers.
When he gets home, no closer to an explanation than he was when he woke up that morning,
Jack's housekeeper Nettie, who is skilled in the art of voodoo, senses that something
is different about him.
She tells him that something evil has opened the door to his soul, and that now, whenever
night falls, a spirit walks out of that door and takes over his body.
She tells him that in the voodoo culture, the word "shadow" means soul.
Then, for the first time, she calls him "Shadowman."
She can sense the other spirit in him, and she tells him that it has a name: Bosou Koblamin.
Surprisingly, though, she says that this spirit is not as evil as it appears to be.
It may stalk the night, searching for vengeance, but it is not, in fact, a demon or an evil
entity at all.
It – or to be more correct, he – is a spirit that quote "rages against evil."
He doesn't want to take over or steal Jack's body, he wants to help him, and help him to
help others.
With this in mind, Nettie makes a suit for Jack, which depicts the other spirit coming
out of a door in Jack's chest, along with three beams of light, which stand for Bosou's
three horns.
Jack wears this as he takes to the streets again, this time as a vigilante.
Using his newfound powers, using his connection with the shadow inside him, and embracing
his destiny, Jack becomes the Shadowman, and sets out to bring criminals to justice, and
to bring an end to the violence in New Orleans.
He soon finds, though, that as his new supernatural powers of regeneration, quick reflexes, speed,
strength, and voodoo are increasing, but that he himself is only growing more confused.
Is he Shadowman, or is he just playing host to a separate entity whose powers exceed his
own?
When he is himself, just Jack, by day, he is hesitant and fearful, and doubtful of his
own self-worth and power.
But when the shadows fall and Bosou takes over, he is confident and strong and self-assured,
and has no doubt that he can do whatever needs to be done.
There is no time, though, to dwell on this crisis of identity, for the violent criminals
he faces are only a tiny fraction of the evil he and Bosou must face.
Soon, more and more dead bodies begin showing up all over the city – and these bodies
begin to walk.
Known as "Bloodrunners," these reanimated corpses run the streets with blood pouring
from their noses, mouths, and eye sockets, and quickly die again.
Calling on his friend Marty for help, Jack begins to look into these zombie-like creatures…
only to be betrayed by Marty and taken to the man behind it all – a necromancer who
calls himself Master Darque.
Darque sicks his Bloodrunners on Jack, but Jack turns into Shadowman, and is able to
escape.
Before he can get away, though, Master Darque steals some of his hair, which he then uses
to create a true zombie from one of the corpses.
He sends the zombie out after Jack, beginning a battle that will last throughout the comic
book's initial run, which ended in 1995.
Eventually, Jack must sacrifice his own life to put an end to Master Darque, but this is
a story for another day.
The Shadowman series went on to have several reboots, one of which came shortly after this
first series ended, and Acclaim Entertainment took over Valiant Comics.
This version was more action-packed and darker, and was written with the aim of making the
story into a video game.
Although the company later changed hands again, Shadowman eventually became the subject of
several video games, and only continued to grow in popularity.
Later reimaginings of the original Shadowman story include a more in-depth look at Jack
Boniface's family, who, it turns out, were fighting Master Darque long before Jack came
along.
This is an entirely different storyline, though, and if you are interested, we will delve deeper
into it in a future video.
For now, though, we can only speak to the original origin story of Jack Boniface, and
the shadow that lives within him.
What do you think of the Shadowman story?
Do you like the idea of a heroic character possessed by a voodoo spirit?
