A boy crosses the American Old West in search of the stranger that brutally murdered his father after destroying their family mine. Bent on revenge, the young man soon realizes that the killer he is chasing is something much, much darker.

The debut series by stunning new comics talent Nick Hermes, The Black-Jack Demon is a genre-breaking Western revenge tale focused on young Silas's journey through the changing American landscape, from the plains to the Rockies, following the trail of carnage left behind by the mysterious figure.

Having graduated from Otis College of Art and Design and Whittier College, Oklahoma native Nick Hermes did work in a variety of art fields before devoting himself to oil painting. His work often combines comic themes with traditional techniques. After 12 years with Joe Wade Fine Art in Santa Fe, Nick splits his time between painting, spending time with his wife and family, and writing/drawing the comic book The Black-Jack Demon.
