Description

Published cover art for The Shadow / Green Hornet: Dark Nights #2 (Dynamite, 2013), fully penciled and inked by John Cassaday. A dramatic, high-contrast composition featuring two of pulp fiction’s most iconic heroes — The Shadow and The Green Hornet — diving into action with Cassaday’s signature cinematic energy.

Cassaday is renowned for his bold graphic style, meticulous rendering, and masterful control of negative space. This cover is a perfect example of those strengths: the stark vertical flag backdrop, the explosive muzzle flashes, the swirling coats and smoke trails, and the sharp spotlighting that defines each figure. The symmetry and downward momentum create an almost poster-like dynamism rarely seen in modern cover art.

This original was used directly for the published cover (shown here in the frame), making it a definitive piece in Cassaday’s cover catalog and a standout in the Shadow/Green Hornet crossover series.

A striking, beautifully balanced cover from one of the most respected comic artists of the modern era.
