Shadowpact (Comic Book) | comment |
The Shadowpact is a DC Comics team that was introduced in the Infinite Crisis miniseries Day of Vengeance as a hastily assembled group of supernatural heroes banding together to stop The Spectre from destroying magic. Jim Rook coins the name Shadowpact, and a conversation between The Phantom Stranger and the wizard Shazam! reveals that there have been many magical teams by that name, and all have been failures.They went on to star in their own series, which ran for 25 issues, in which they faced a powerful wizard called Dr Gotham, who was summoning a being called the Sun King. Both Day of Vengeance and the subsequent series were written by Bill Willingham, best known for Fables.The original membership was: Jim Rook: Formerly the Sword and Sorcery hero Nightmaster, who now ran the Oblivion Bar and was the team's first leader. Blue Devil: Still using demonic powers to fight crime, and now worried that he was a walking Hard Truth Aesop. Detective Chimp: Because you gotta have a monkey. Enchantress: Former Heel–Face Revolving Door magic-user, now firmly a heroine. Became team leader after Rook left. Nightshade: Heroine with Casting a Shadow powers and shadow-teleportation. A Half-Human Hybrid whose mother came from the Shadow Dimension. Ragman: Gotham City's Tattered Tatterdemalion, who gains power from a costume made of the souls of the damned. In Shadowpact it turns out the suit is actually a tool of redemption - souls that work with Ragman instead of fighting him eventually get released to Heaven.Later members were: Acheron: An illusion-casting ghost. Midnight Rider: A modern-day cowboy with magic guns. Warlock's Daughter: the former apprentice of a magical villain from Willingham's run on Robin. Zauriel: An angel, formerly a member of Justice League of America, who is commanded to join the team while Blue Devil seeks repentance.The Phantom Stranger, while not a member of the team, took an interest in them, and was shown as the comic's narrator.(Incidentally, Day of Judgement, the 1999 Crisis Crossover by Geoff Johns that Day of Vengeance was a sequel to, introduced a team called Sentinels of Magic that included Enchantress, Blue Devil and Ragman, together with other magical characters such as Zatanna, Madame Xanadu and the Golden Age Green Lantern. This team made one subsequent appearance (JLA: Black Baptism) and was then never mentioned again.) | |

Failure Is the Only Option | |
Shadowpact (Comic Book) / int_260926c3 | comment |
Failure Is the Only Option: Subverted. At the group's founding, during Day of Vengeance, Phantom Stranger mentions how all incarnations of Shadowpact always meet a terrible end. He then pops up throughout the series to restate this fact. This is brought up on occasion by the members of the group, during times of stress or when it seems as if they will not be able to save the day. However, the series ends with them doing just that, saving the day from the Sun King. The fight involves them actually working with different Shadowpact groups throughout history, since the Sun King is stated to be attacking all points in time at once. Therefore, by managing to stop the Sun King, the Shadowpact stops him from killing their previous and future incarnations, thereby changing the doomed nature of the group. | |

Guile Hero: In their first battle, Strega easily defeats Enchantress thanks to superior power and experience. However, Enchantress knew that she was outmatched by Strega and wasn't even trying to win the fight at all. Rather, she was studying Strega's attacks to analyze her spells and figure out how to undo the barrier Strega had placed on the town. | |

PsychoRangers | |
Shadowpact (Comic Book) / int_902b99c5 | comment |
Psycho Rangers: The Pentacle, comprising the witch Strega, the swordsman White Rabbit, the demonic Jack of Fire, the shadowcasting Sister Shadow, the bizarre Bagman and the sociopathic Kid Karnevil. You could actually say that the Shadowpact are the Psycho Rangers to The Pentacle, judging from the way they see it - sure, The Pentacle are the bad guys, but both Strega, Bagman, Jack of Fire and Dr. Gotham note that it seems that this Shadowpact was created specifically to stop this team from resurrecting the Sun King, which would in a sense make them "good" Psycho Rangers. | |

Cool Sword: Rook's Nightblade, which grants him Danger Sense and the ability to compel the truth. It later turns out to be haunted by the ghost of his father, who tells him it can do anything he can imagine. The White Rabbit also has one as he is Nightmaster's Evil Counterpart in the Pentacle. It has the ability to make people fall asleep with a minor cut. | |

Pragmatic Hero: While White Rabbit does free Shadowpact, Enchantress still knocks him out. As she points out White Rabbit is still an enemy and if anything is more dangerous due to his tendency to switch sides for frivolous reasons (he wanted a rematch with Nightmaster). | |

Magic Is Feminine: The male members of the team are Blue Devil, a stuntman and martial artist who was turned into a demon, Ragman who wears a mystical suit composed of souls, Nightmaster who fights with a magic sword and Detective Chimp, a talking monkey. The female characters are the Enchantress, a powerful and clever sorceress, and Nightshade, a mage with shadow magic she inherited from her mother. The team is later joined by the angel Zauriel who is male and Warlock's Daughter, a young girl whom Enchantress takes in as her apprentice in the magical arts. | |

Light Is Not Good | |
Shadowpact (Comic Book) / int_e543a655 | comment |
Light Is Not Good: The Sun King. The Congregation could qualify in a Knight Templar variation. They attack the Shadowpact because they think they are villains and show little regard for civilians blinded by their battle with the so called "villains". Keep in mind that the Shadowpact's heroic exploits are a matter of public knowledge and they even have a statue built in their honor by the people of Metropolis. | |
