Like the movie 'The Crow: City Of Angels' bein' nowhere as good as the original movie, the story is the same with 'Dead Time', the first comic series since J.O'Barr's superior original comic series tellin' the story of Eric Draven. In this second comic series of The Crow, this story tells the story of a man named Joshua who is brought back to life a century after his death to avenge his killers in the present who are now reincarnated. Some may find this plot to be quite far fetched and quite silly really. But at least it's 'different'. And the story is by J.O'Barr, but unfortunatly the art isn't and the artist Alexander Maleev's work lacks the distinctive look of Barr's work in the original. But Maleev's work is very good indeed and it's great to look at, but it can leave one disapointed compared to the original. Bottom line, this crow story really does lack the power of the original. But crow fans will learn to like it.
