The members of Rae Sremmurd have teamed up with Valiant Comics and will make their illustrated debut in an upcoming project called SHADOWMAN/RAE SREMMURD #1.
Speaking to Billboard, Slim Jxmmi expressed his excitement at being involved in the issue, saying “Comic books are a form of entertainment. I get to make all the sounds and effects in my head. It’s just like you use your imagination – you go through the pictures and the pictures are always awesome. It’s like an escape from reality,”
“Shadowman is crazy. It has a lot of twists and turns. It keeps me involved and interested. I can’t even take my eyes off of Shadowman when I read it. I have to finish the book.”

The comic book character might not be universally known, but his story is an interesting one. Beginning life as a jazz musician in Louisiana, the door to his soul becomes opened up — and his soul takes over when shadows fall at night, allowing the Shadowman to hunt criminals.
SHADOWMAN/RAE SREMMURD #1 is set to drop in October.
