Nick is probably best known for his work on Pink Lemonade and XINO, and it's important to note that this is his first full-length artwork since the aforementioned Pink Lemonade.

Now, reborn as a phantom with fleeting memories of his life among the living, and forever cursed to bear the arcane costume his corpse wore to the grave, Erik will claw his way back from the infernal planes to uncover the mysteries of his own life . . . and avenge the dark sins that transformed him into the SPIRIT OF THE SHADOWS!" We discuss how this comic miniseries came to be and who the characters are, also explore Nick's comics career, and talk about what he has coming our way in 2026!
