<\/a><\/a>\"\"<\/a>[ENGLIGH] Top Cow Productions Inc. announced today that artist Jorge Lucas, who impressed many with his work on last year\u2019s Pilot Season: Ripclaw, will come on board for a guest stint on The Darkness starting with August\u2019s issue #7. \u201cJorge\u2019s art has a dark edge to it that depicts some of the seamier sides of Jackie\u2019s life perfectly,\u201d commented Phil Hester, who writes The Darkness. \u201cIt\u2019s a nice thematic shift too, because we\u2019re taking a break from Jackie at the height of his\u00a0strength as depicted by Michael Broussard\u2019s lush, powerful work and contrasting it with Jackie at a low ebb as depicted by Jorge\u2019s dark, graphic style. It\u2019s a blessing to have both guys at the book\u2019s disposal.\u201d
\n\u201cI\u2019m looking forward to working on The Darkness because he is my favorite Top Cow character,\u201d said Lucas, who remembers reading The Darkness issues in Spanish in Argentina, where he still makes his home. \u201cI like the horror genre a lot, and the darker the character, the better. Jackie Estacado is a soul tortured by his demons, a cursed being, and I love this about him.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>Lucas and Hester have already started working together and are finding the process very smooth. \u201cPhil is a great designer, and his scripts are so descriptive,\u201d remarked Lucas, whose other previous credits include Hulk Vs. Fin Fang Foom, Mystique, and Iron Man. \u201cPlus, he supplies thumbnails, which are a great help!\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n

\u201cWorking with Jorge has been painless,\u201d reinforced Hester. \u201cHe gives you everything you ask for and makes it look absolutely authentic to boot.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lucas\u2019 guest stint kicks off in issue #7 with Jackie encountering a pair of witches after the conclusion of the events in the \u201cEmpire\u201d story arc. In issue #8, Jackie runs into an old nemesis, and there\u2019s a particular sequence in that issue that Hester points out Lucas was perfect to draw.
\n\u201cI don\u2019t think anyone could have handled the hog-lot shootout in issue #8 quite as well,\u201d laughed Hester. \u201cYou have to see it to believe it. We\u2019re all going to hell for that one.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
