To start of Sumerian's "Year of The Crow," The Crow: Dead Time returns to print in comic book format for the first time since 1996. Joshua is left for dead by a band of renegade soldiers in the late 1860s. The crow that is perched nearby as he is dying tells him that time is no barrier to retribution, and the story comes forward to the present day where Joshua is confronted with a biker gang who resemble the soldiers.
