    This is one of my favorite series from the good old days, though I've read it a long time ago so I may look at it through rose tinted glasses. Adrian Chase is a man tormented by tragedy who can't put his past behind him and get back to his normal life even though the more he fights his war on crime, the more evident it is it's a suicide mission and everything he's built crumbles around him. Some arcs are better than others, I'll say that. If you know Marv Wolfman, you know he liked to experiment a lot (COIE is big proof of that) and sometimes it works, sometimes... it doesn't. You get many guest stars here, Batman, the Titans, Peacemaker among them. But the ride is enjoyable and the ending hits all the right notes, this series goes out with a bang. Long, solo series like this is what I miss about the comic industry these days.

    P.S.: The character assassination they're going to pull in the Peacemaker series with this character, based on what I've seen in the trailers, is going to be irritating, to say the least. That version has NOTHING in common with the tone of this series.
