Seven years have passed since the death of Crane Carlson, aka the Night Devil, New York City’s only vigilante. In the years since, his faithful sidekick Shadowboy has mourned him, slowly going insane and becoming increasingly violent, all the while searching for any means with which to bring him back to life. But as we begin to learn more about the legacy of Crane Carlson, it becomes apparent that nothing is quite what it seems, and a mysterious new villain will threaten to bring Shadowboy’s reign of terror crashing to an end.
oh man... i nnneed this to go on.... when is the update??
sooooooooo sick that i actually love it ^^
....................................
My faorite comic from Zuda!
Wicked. Absolutely wicked.:] Eager to see more!
Cool... in a wierd to no end, no one knows wtf is going on kind of way. love the art though
Strange and interesting, keep it coming!
This is the coolest, most original comic I've read in a long time.
Wow - great stuff here, so far! Love the two different storylines going on, with the old comic and the new. I'd love to see MORE. Thanks for a cool story.
This has "WTF" written all over it. I like!
anybody know whats happening wth this book?
yeah! this is awesome!!! I want more!!!
ummmmmmmmmm...I need this to continue!!!!
can't wait for more. Great stuff!!
loved it, awesome stuff!
I caught that review over the weekend, Scott! Glad you like what I'm doing. And in response to a point you brought up over there.... well, I still can't really say anthing about the hiatus, except that I AM still working very hard on the strip. I am also currently plotting the fairly dense "I Tour the Night 2010" convention schedule repleat with special items that will only be available in person. In fact, I'm privy to unconfirmed rumors about several other Zuda creators also planning big convention-type things in '10, but you didn't hear that from me.....
Howdy. If anyone is interested, I recently posted a review of I Rule the Night on my website. You can check it out here:

Dope and hookers, huh? Those crazy musicians.
Great Stuff! Love It! FUN! (& aint that what comics are really all about?)
this comic is just incredible, i can't wait for more. It's got that kind of Dark Knight Returns melancholy and weirdness to it, i love it.
It's so good it should just be published
Is there going to be any more? I love the conflict between the golden age comics and this interpretation of the golden age morals.
I would love some sort of blog that talks about these character some more.
Is this comic cancelled? There were posts about a big announcement to come shortly but that was almost four months ago. Anyone know what happened?
I was wondering that, but now I'm not wondering ;-)
I wonder if the delay had anything to do with the new mature content filter/check box?
*************************************
Looking forward to reading this again.
One of my favorite webcomics on Zuda. You are just an amazingly gifted/twister creator. Keep up the good work!
Heh, this one of the most fantastically creepy things I have ever read. I apologize if this has been asked of you a zillion times, but where did you come up with something so marvelously twisted?
~Troilo
WOW !
Super find here on Zuba... can't wait for more more more. Especially like the contrast between the grey & white and the old school looking panels for the backstory / history.
This one is a keeper.
It's so mysteeeEEEEEeeeeerious..... the buzz, it is building.
more please.
I love your style...
I love the way you create that misterious ambience, congrats!!
Your comic really got me... i´ll keep reading.
Thanks all (and nice meeting you too, Bryy).
I still have to be a little cryptic, but not for long at all. Big shifts in the tectonic plates that bind us happening VERY SOON, and we'll have a new start date for IRTN. Thanks again for your patience!
Nice meeting you for our limited time at SDCC!
I could not close my eyes amazing story keep it up.
What that we could. As Ron's post implies, the IRTN hiatus hinges on two things, [REDACTED] and [REDACTED]. I really do appreciate everyone's patience, and I promise, we'll be coming backout of the gate with a doozy. Soon.
More please. More please now?
"Absence makes the heart grow fonder..."
wow i did'nt read it for a while...... this is really a awesome comic! love the last screens!
Ghasp! What an amazing comic.
Hey everyone - yes, we're aware the schedule of IRTN is delayed and on behalf of everyone here at ZUDA we apologize for that. IRTN will be back VERY soon. Can't say more now other than thanks for your patience. Just a little bit longer...
The reason for the unexpected hiatus will be revealed soon. All I can really say is that it's bigger than IRTN. I appreciate everyone holding the line for so long, and I've still been working my tail off over here, so hopefully when we go live again we can make up for lost time, eh?
Love the story, but well over a month since new pages have been uploaded or postings from KColden have been(sent (last post was a bit cryptic). Any updates on either fronts?
This is awesome
This is the single most ****ed up comic I have ever read. And I love every page of it. KEEP IT UP!
Hi everybody - You may have noticed, we seem to have had a minor glitch on the most recent update. You may also have noticed that we appear to be on hiatus for the moment. The irony here is that, while the two are related, it's not in the way that you might think. Let's just say that when we come back in a few weeks, IRTN v2.0 will be just like the original, with a little extra kick. IRTN++ if you will. But that's all I can say for now...
@niklopez – Or maybe the opposite?
@Bagelman – She is kinda.
@ptimony – Well, she IS in a tank. Our Greek chorus is alluding to tings to come…
@Snuffle – It’ll all make sense.
@James Clayton – You can only take so many left turns before you’re heading in the direction that you started.
@coffeehousecomics – Thanks, Brother!
@steve steiner – Very much so. Brat Pack is one of my favorite books, and a lot of what I’ve done so far here is an homage to Veitch’s work (his other books are equally awesome including his current one from Vertigo, Army@Love). But sit tight.
@Bryy Miller – It will all make sense in the next few pages – which is why we’ve slowed down for the moment.
@oysterboy – I try. We here at IRTN central try to keep things entertaining.
@steve steiner – Yeah. Sorry. I could work faster, but it wouldn’t look so hot.
@grizzlywilliam – There aren’t enough opportunities to use a good French stereotype nowadays.
@korrected – It will keep going until there is no more.
@James Clayton – Glad you like.
@Ayographic – Took you long enough.
@ptimony – There are… similarities. But nothing to worry about.
@Snuffle – Yup. Deep down, Lainey’s just a person. Kinda.
@RKB – It’s no good having a goofball villain if you can’t use him.
@korrected – Well, it’s all about artifice and theatrics. Remember that.
@paulmckinneyart – And you shall have more crazy Lainey.
Kevin, just when I think I know the limits of your Black Humor, you go off and kill a gay bad guy offscreen (called The Deviant no less).
I'm getting the same kind of vibe from this as Rick Veitch's mini series "The Brat Pack"
gave your fine comic a shout out in my comic, keep up the amazing work! http://www.dcstrip.com/2009/05/they-should-hand-these-things-out-to.html
