Roger Brant lost his legs and was trapped in an ancient temple in Viet Nam, the otherworldly Chen Lo gave him the secret of how to tap into the powerful life energies of a million dead souls- and Brant became The Shade. Fresh from his continuing series in the first six issues of Americomics, the eerie spirit relocates to Central Florida, where he takes a job with Fremont industries. It's not long before he runs into the bosses' adventurous daughter, Tara; ( soon to become a Femforce member ) and the two of them are knee-deep in rotting corpses and zombies, as they come up against Umbra, the Voodoo priestess.

Finally, he was a gambler and a con man, an ordinary card shark...THEN Duke Cartee suddenly appeared with newfound powers. He had the "Eyes Of A Hypnotist", a weird advenrure set in the Old West, starring the mystery rider of the Rio Grande, The Latigo Kid.
