Cloaks

Cloaks is a taut four-issue miniseries from Boom! Studios, launched in 2014, that reimagines the classic vigilante archetype in a gritty, modern setting. Written by Caleb Monroe and illustrated by Mariano Navarro, the series follows two estranged brothers who inherit a pair of magical cloaks granting them extraordinary abilities, forcing them to confront their fractured relationship and the dangerous legacy of their family's secret war. This short but potent run matters for its fresh take on superhero tropes, blending crime drama with supernatural elements in a compact, character-driven story.
