Wraith is coming! and he is sort of our first SEMI official /related RED SHADOW coming out

I say semi because it was revealed that the suit he wears was developed by the RED SHADOWS and after Halifax was killed the suit was given back to the RED SHADOWS by the Baroness

so the RED SHADOWS are back in possession of the wraith suit and the next Wraith would definately be a RED SHADOW !

Nice. Took them awhile, and now he's dead, but nice. I am surprised that Vaughn didn't use the suit to spring Dela Eden from the joint in Prague in issue 34. If Devil's Due still had the liscense(something I'll stewing about for a long time Hasbro) I was thinking that we'd see a whole squad of Wraith Commandos deployed down the line by the Red Shadows.

I really need to pay more attention to this board.

That was an interesting retcon on DDP's part. The suit was originally intended to be a prototype Chinese battle suit when Brandon Jerwa first created Wraith, but I guess they decided to change it in order to further wipe-out his run.

ya it was

I loved it though, brought the RED SHADOWS back into play and gave them a potentially cool new character to add to their ranks some day!

The Wraith figure looks really good it's a pity The Red Laser custom never won and was mass produced for the anniversary competition.
