We’re moving on to the next phase of his life,” Jackson said. “He’s become No. 1, but reluctantly, and he refuses to actually wear the headband and be No. 1. He’s gone into seclusion and is doing penance for all of the people he’s killed, making little shrines for them. Then this woman shows up and wants to reanimate his father’s skeleton and create some sort of zombie army, which brings him out of his retirement to defend his family’s honor.” Jackson predicts more to come from this particular character (there’s also a tie-in video game out Tuesday) and hints that maybe the grim hero might find himself with family in future adventures, à la “Lone Wolf and Cub.” “There’s lots of places to go in terms of the richness of this particular world,” Jackson said.
