Future Comics introduces a new kind of protagonist to their universe: the mystic marauder known in the deepest shadows as… Deathmask!

 A Native American shaman, Deathmask had gained fame as an illusionist, augmenting trickery with actual magic, until he’d suffered an unimaginable loss at he hands of organized crime. Now vengeance is his god, and he serves that deity with zeal, blood and abandon. Wielding a quantum science so advanced that it can only be viewed as supernatural, St. Synn fights fire with fire, relishing the agony he brings to those who would cause pain to innocent citizens. To him, justice is worth any cost – even the dark price he himself had paid to gain his powers.
