A soul is brought back.
But something is wrong.
Angeles Cero won't stop killing on her quest for revenge, and the bodies are piling up.

But they aren't the only force trying to make the universe right again.
From writer/artist, Tim Seeley (Green Lanterns, Nightwing, Shatterstar).
Featuring an all-new Crow unlike any you've read before!
Tim Seeley crafts another exciting chapter in the adventure of Cassie Hack. The Crow: Hack/Slash #1 promises plenty of action for our favorite monster hunter, while also challenging Cassie's character. Read Full Review
The Crow: Hack / Slash is a crossover that just makes sense. Of course these two franchises would cross paths. There's some nice overlap, especially in the goth scene. If I could go back in time and tell myself in 8th grade about this comic, it would knock me right out of my JNCOs. Fortunately, this book is much more than a dark tale. There's a story of vengeance wrapped in good old-fashioned supernatural ass-kicking. Read Full Review
Though perhaps not as comedic and callback-heavy as "Hack/Slash vs. Chaos!" #1, "The Crow: Hack/Slash" #1 shows that this creative team is an excellent fit for the horror crossover. Read Full Review
'Hack/Slash' crossovers have always been a fun read, but this one is out of the grave starting to feel just a little bit different. 'The Crow' angle brings in a new vibe and some unique nostalgia. If you are a fan of either property, pick this book up at your local comic book shop. Read Full Review

With only that one minor complaint, The Crow Hack/Slash #1is brought to a finish on a greatcliffhanger moment as the stakes are raised, and a new participant enters the fray, leaving me eagerly awaiting the next piece in this tale of vengeance, violence and soul searching. Read Full Review
That being said, there was a lot I enjoyed about this issue, even though I am totally confused about what Vlad is and what a “slasher” is. I did find Cassie and Vlad compelling characters. The dialogue is fantastic and I did find the characters and plot very interesting. I also really like the brighter coloring work and was surprised about how well it fits the story. It also has a great cliffhanger ending that has me on board for the next issue. I am very interested to see what Seeley does now that the story is really ready to get going! Read Full Review
From this review, you may feel that I am not a fan of either of these set of characters. Nothing could be further from the truth. I have a lot of time for the original Crow series, with Hack/Slash in their various team-ups bringing an odd sense of fun. Here then is the problem; I am not sure that the two properties actually suit one another. Its not like Vampirella & Hack/Slash, where both have their tongue-in-cheek elements. This then makes this book an odd disjointed type of affair. Read Full Review
