DOCTOR OMEGA AND THE SHADOWMEN
edited by J-M. & R. Lofficier
based on the character created by Arnould Galopin
cover by Mike Shoyket

Stories by Matthew Baugh, Thom Brannan, G.L. Gick, Travis Hiltz, Olivier Legrand, Serge Lehman, Jean-Marc & Randy Lofficier, Samuel T. Payne, John Peel, Neil Penswick, Dennis E. Power, Chris Roberson and Stuart Shiffman.
The mysterious traveler through the aether known only as Doctor Omega was created by Arnould Galopin in 1906 in his eponymous novel, first published into English by Black Coat Press in 2003. Since then, many talented authors have created new adventures for him.

Follow the enigmatic Doctor from the Wild, Wild West to the Vampire City, from Hollywood to Metropolis and beyond, as he encounters a host of other heroes and villains such as Sâr Dubnotal, Nosferatu, Professor Moriarty, Jirel of Joiry, the Bride of Frankenstein and the Three Doctors...
