You know I love a good Archie team-up comic, right? Well this one has the added bonus of being about pirates!

Beginning in October, the five-issue miniseries Vengeance Unchained: The Legend of Black Caesar is a collaboration between the legendary basketball player Shaquille O’Neal and Archie Comics.

It will recount: "the rise of one of history’s most mythological pirates" as a "grounded, character-driven pirate epic which follows the transformation of an African king into a feared outlaw of the Caribbean, blending historical inspiration with cinematic storytelling".

The series is being written by the Eisner-nominated writer Stephanie Williams, with artwork by Ray-Anthony Height and Studio Skye-Tiger.
