In a world where costumed heroes soar through the sky and masked vigilantes prowl the night, someone’s got to make sure the “supes” don’t get out of line. And someone will. Billy Butcher, Wee Hughie, Mother’s Milk, The Frenchman and The Female are The Boys: a CIA-backed team of very dangerous people, each one dedicated to the struggle against the most lethal force on Earth- superpower. Some superheroes have to be watched. Some have to be controlled. And some of them- sometimes- need to be taken out of the picture. That’s when you call in The Boys. The war is over and the world is saved. The supes have been beaten down so far they’ll never get up again. So why would anyone want one hundred and eighteen metric tons of the only substance on earth that can kill them all stone dead? Bad days start coming thick and fast, as the Boys are caught in the last throes of the battle they were recruited to fight so long ago. Hughie, all on his own and out of luck, finds himself walking down one last bloody trail- and the truth he finds waiting for him at the end of it will be nothing short of shattering. Billy Butcher’s vengeance comes full circle, in this twelfth and final entry in the story of The Boys.

“If you are a fan of Ennis, you’ll enjoy this book, no doubt. It’s the perfect character for his dark mentality and it looks like it’s going to be one hell of a ride. If you’re a fan of The Shadow, then you’ll be happy to know that the character is in great hands. Ennis obviously loves him as much as we do.” – IGN

“The Shadow is powerful, scary and full of crazy new powers of which most people are probably unaware. And under Garth Ennis’ crafty pen, he is intimidating and interesting, both in and out of costume. I look forward to reading about the evil lurking in the hearts of men, especially if this version of the Shadow is on the case” – NEWSARAMA

“Above all else, Garth Ennis’ new Shadow title is fun.” – BROKEN FRONTIER

“This is a great comic, and you’re going to love it. Ennis is introducing The Shadow for a whole new generation of fans who didn’t know what they missed the first time around. Pick it up……… or HE’LL KNOW!” – GEEKS OF DOOM

“Readers will not be able to help themselves from getting pulled into this world of The Shadow. The Shadow is a book I will easily recommend to everyone I meet.“ – JUST ABOUT COMICS

500 years in the future when citizens’ thoughts are monitored by a centralized super-computer and crime has all but been eliminated, the mysterious and violent death of an individual is cause for significant alarm. This is whole new terrain for the ill-equipped security forces, especially when what appears to be a homicide investigation leads to evidence that someone’s mind is off the grid, raising the tantalizing possibility that absolute security – and the world in general – is not all that it’s cracked up to be. Acclaimed writer Marc Guggenheim presents part two of his original series Nowhere Man, where the mystery only deepens and action picks up.
