		<description><![CDATA[Dark Horse's aborted attempt at a superhero universe in the 2010s.]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Project Black Sky was a group of series published by Dark Horse circa 2012-2015 tying together characters rebooted from the public domain, the Comics Greatest World line of the early 90s, and a few new entries.  Unfortunately, Dark Horse seemed to just give up on the line as the first phase was winding down and never really resolved the overarching background mystery.  Still, there are some fun stories in the batch.</p>
<p>I originally wanted to map this in chronological order, but there was very little intersection between the series like that.  And when the line fizzled out, I decided the best approach was to bind it by series.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Captain Midnight volume one</strong></span><br />
Project Black Sky Secret Files TPB (except for FCBD story)<br />
Dark Horse Presents #18-20 (Captain Midnight #0)<br />
FCBD 2013: Star Wars/Avatar/Captain Midnight &#8211; middle story only<br />
Captain Midnight #1-7<br />
Skyman #1-4<br />
Captain Midnight #8-11<br />
Two Past Midnight #1-5</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Captain Midnight volume two</strong></span><br />
Free Comic Book Day 2014:  Project Black Sky<br />
Captain Midnight #12-16<br />
Skyman one-shot<br />
Captain Midnight #17-24</p>
<p><em>The FCBD story is reprinted in the Secret Files TPB, and that&#8217;s what I used here.</em></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Ghost</strong></span><br />
Dark Horse Presents #13-15 (Ghost #0)<br />
Ghost mini series #1-4<br />
Ghost #1-12</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>X</strong></span><br />
Dark Horse Presents #19-21 (X #0)<br />
X #1-24</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Brain Boy &amp; The Occultist</strong></span><br />
The Occultist one-shot<br />
The Occultist #1-3<br />
Dark Horse Presents #11-13 (Occultist story, not reprinted in #0 issue)<br />
The Occultist #1-5<br />
Dark Horse Presents #23-25 (Brain Boy #0)<br />
Brain Boy #1-3<br />
Free Comic Book Day 2014:  Project Black Sky<br />
Brain Boy:  The Men from GESTALT #1-4<br />
Dark Horse Presents #7/200 (Ape-X story)</p>
<p><em>I know, the title is backwards of the contents, but it flows better.  The 2014 FCBD story appears again, this time binding the original issue.</em></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Quis Nisi Nos</strong></span><br />
Dark Horse Presents #24-26 (Blackout story, no #0 issue)<br />
Blackout #1-4<br />
Barb Wire #1-8<br />
Blackout #1-4 (King Tiger backups)<br />
King Tiger #1-4</p>
<p><em>This last book is just a catch-all of the last few minis that didn&#8217;t really fit anywhere else.  Barb Wire and King Tiger didn&#8217;t even carry the PBS trade dress.  I considered putting all of the short series together (including Brain Boy and the Occultist), but the book was just slightly too big for my preferences.</em></p>
