Hawk the Slayer: Watch For Me In The Night

Product Information

Ennis: I imagine they’ll come for the genre and/or the creative team, and hopefully stay for the characters and story. Hawk the Slayer is very much its own peculiar beast; there’s nothing else quite like it in the genre. One thing I wanted to do was focus heavily on the characters, to continue the existing story rather than expand the world of Hawk into a typical fantasy world of warlords and power bases – I honestly think you can get that stuff anywhere, and one thing I didn’t want to do was lose the unique tone of the original. So you get a good chunk of the original cast, but also some new characters who will work well alongside them, and they don’t get lost as the narrative unfolds.

In a YouTube interview, Marcel stated that he wanted to explore more of the origin of Hawk and Voltan, how Hawk became a warrior and how Voltan became evil. he also wanted to expand on the idea that there was more than one magical stone besides the mind stone that Hawk wields on his sword. He also wanted to show a little bit about the elves in Hawk's land and imagined the film as a prequel to the original.

Garth Ennis: Very much so. I let various publishers know I was interested in Hawk over the years – you often get asked if there’s a franchise you’re particularly interested in, something they’re hoping to relaunch and make a fortune off, and then you get to watch their faces twist in bewilderment when you say Hawk the Slayer . Beyond that, when it’s a movie or book you love, there’ll be questions you’ve been wondering about the answers to since the first time you encountered it. In this case, forty years. Garth Ennis voyages beyond the edge of darkness with Hawk the Slayer! @ ForbiddenPlanet.com - UK and Worldwide Cult Entertainment Megastore Ennis: Not at the moment. I pretty much scratched the Hawk The Slayer itch with these five issues. But something may well occur once the series sees print. Sometimes the way people respond to a story will get you thinking about it in a different way. Hawk locates his old friends: Gort, a giant who wields a war hammer; Crow, an elf who uses a bow; and Baldin, a dwarf skilled with a whip. The five warriors travel to the convent and fight Voltan's men. It is not enough though and Voltan threatens to kill the Abbess. Voltan still demands the ransom. Hawk steals gold from a slave trader to pay the ransom. Ennis: They’re full issues, but we’re saving Greg’s covers for the US format release in April. They’ll be worth the wait.
