The Light Brigade in: "To Save the Shadow-Thief!"

 

For this, the fifth appearance of The Light Brigade, I thought I would include one of my all time favorite villains.  His simple concept and look really appealed to me as a kid, and it didn't hurt that I first saw him illustrated by the legendary Joe Kubert.

Whoa! This sounds like a truly "Dark Matter".

Unless, of course, he already swallowed them up (post-STF #3600)!

I think Dagger will be the key here. She's used to using her powers to stabilize a dark-powered individual, as I recall.

Who’s the villain?

Would Shadow-Theif EVER be concerned to save the city?? doubt it. But, I'm not trying to make light of the situation. (no cookie), i just don't think he's grown that much as a person!!

Ian Karkull, probably.

If my hunch about Dark Matter's absorption is correct, maybe it's Obsidian calling out for help via the Shadow Thief's mouth!

You mean Obsid-1 is working from the shadows?
