"Mike and I call this a 'Frazetta Age' story it happens in a non-historical Viking setting, it's really cooler than any real Viking tale ever could be. The Darkness wielder does in fact free Lodbrok's village, but he exacts a terrible price of Lodrbok in return.
CBR News caught up with Hester to talk about the project."The Darkness: Lodbrok's Hand" tells the story of a sea captain who makes a deal with the Darkness bearer of the time to help him seek out freedom for his enslaved village. Phil Hester, the writer who last year re-launched Top Cow's "The Darkness" to much critical and commercial success, has teamed with superstar Michael Avon Oeming on a new Darkness one-shot called "Lodbrok's Hand." An artist himself, Hester tailors his scripts to the strengths of the illustrator he's working with, and with that in mind, "Lodbrok's Hand" does not follow the present Darkness wielder, Jackie Estacado, but rather one from a pseudo-historical Viking era.
