Biography
Buck Cowan was a journalist researching a legendary mystic text known as the Darkhold. Operating out of the Los Angeles, California area, he came upon an eighteen-year-old man named Jack Russell - the descendant of Baron Gregory Russoff - the last known possessor of the arcane tome. Jack suffered his own problems as a result of the Darkhold in that he had inherited a curse, passed down from his father, whereupon he transformed into a werewolf on the nights of the full moon. Buck and Jack traced the whereabouts of the Darkhold to L.A., which brought them into conflict with the Blackgar family. ( 4)
