Nov. '86 - Cloak and Dagger # 9


This is a series that I've collected entirely through quarter and fifty cent bins in the last two years (except for the Secret Wars II crossover issue; I bought every crossover issue of the limited series). I have the complete series now - all eleven issues! I started looking for it because I enjoyed the storyline (the heroes trying to elminate the drug trade) and the art always seemed good. This issue was no exception as the artist was Art Adams. Other artists from past issues were Whilce Portacio and Marc Silvestri.

Cloak and Dagger have followed a shipment of drugs from New York to France. It's staggering to think they've gone to this much work to try and track down one shipment of drugs; a drop in the bucket for the drug trade just in their neighbourhood. It was an interesting story and their relationship was interesting as well. Dagger just wanted to go back to a normal like but Cloak, I think, preferred their new life to his old one. He was also dependent on her light power to maintain his sanity so he was always slightly manipulating her to keep her around.
