Re: Shadowman [2018] #7 Discussion
I loved it, 5/5!
The Shadowman pre-history was perfectly explained and I really dug the whole breaker of bonds thing. If you read up on Bosou Kolblamin that is actually what the Loa is. The three horns even tie into the shadow symbol, a man on three horns. This was so well put together.
Another big reveal was the power of an unbound Loa as opposed to a bound Loa, which so far every Shadowman we have seen has been with the bound Loa. This Loa was unbound and able to suck guys into their own shadows and appear out of other peoples shadows. Super cool crazy new powers.
This series is really getting Shadowman back on track and taking it to new heights.

Another great issue which sets up more potential plots moving forward...I like the way Diggle has added depth to the Shadowman lore without compromising what came before. 5/5
