About this ebook
The definitive edition of the classic graphic novel—including never-before-seen material and a new introduction by the author.
When James O’Barr poured the pain and anguish of a personal tragedy into the drawings that comprise The Crow, his intensely cathartic story of Eric—who returns from the dead to avenge his and his fiancée’s murder at the hands of a street gang—resonated with readers around the world. Now, the illustrated tale that became the “thrilling” (Los Angeles Daily News) and “spectacular” (Chicago Tribune) screen triumph is re-released in an expanded version the author originally intended, complete at last with:
—Thirty pages of never-before-seen artwork, including a new closing segment, “Sparklehorse,” and the touching new scene, “An August Noel”
—A new Introduction by James O’Barr
—Lost sequences restored using the artist’s original technique
This is The Crow like you’ve never seen it before—the powerful journey of an avenging angel and a celebration of true love...as fierce, intelligent, and unforgettable as when it was first conceived.
Suggested for mature readers.

I know you are wondering why a four, I gave it a four because if I gave it a five that would be to good of a review and well yes this book was awesome in every aspect but I feel James O’Barr would agree. This book, the 1994 movie saved me so much that it wow'd me and so compelling I want to make a detailed dedicated fan film to prove and show how much and well it means to us the fans. Thank you for reading this review.

It is a haunting and visually stunning graphic novel that explores themes of love, loss, and revenge. O'Barr's artwork is both dark and beautiful, perfectly capturing the gothic atmosphere. The story is a powerful and emotional journey that will stay with you long after you've finished reading.
