Dive into the shadowy surge of The Darkness (2025) #2 Cover B Jason Shawn Alexander Variant, written by legendary co-creator Marc Silvestri and illustrated by Raymond Gay (with colors by Arif Prianto and team), published by Image Comics/Top Cow Productions! Releasing on January 21, 2026, this issue intensifies the reboot's brutal chaos: mafia hitman Jackie Estacado wrestles with his cursed Darkness powers as the Franchetti-Russian gang war erupts into full mayhem. Kalashnikov-wielding thugs pale against the real threat—the Angelus and her light-wielding warriors, hell-bent on obliterating the Darkness forever in a visceral clash of supernatural forces, demonic summons, and gritty moral gray areas that redefine the anti-hero's legacy.Cover DetailsThe Cover B Variant by Jason Shawn Alexander showcases his signature expressionist style—raw, emotive figures drenched in shadowy intensity, dynamic Darkness tendrils, and haunting atmospheric dread that captures Jackie's tormented power. As a key variant for this early-issue ongoing, its bold, painterly composition and Alexander's cult-favorite dark artistry (known from Spawn and beyond) make it a collector's standout for fans seeking elevated, horror-infused covers in the Top Cow Universe.Key AppearancesFeatures Jackie Estacado harnessing The Darkness amid escalating mob violence, demonic entities from another realm, and the relentless pursuit by the Angelus and her warriors.
