The character has subsequently appeared in several feature films, a television series, and
spin-off novels and comics. In the various incarnations, films, and spin-offs, many people
have taken on the Crow persona in order to avenge their own wrongful deaths. In 2011, IGN
ranked the Crow 37th in the Top 100 Comic Book Heroes. The Crow made his live-action
debut in the 1994 film The Crow, portrayed by Brandon Lee. Later, The Crow was portrayed by
Mark Dacascos in the 1998 television series The Crow: Stairway to Heaven.

The Crow (bird)

The Crow is a supernatural bird that serves as the protagonist's link between the living world
and the realm of beyond. The magical crow is capable of resurrecting people who have been
murdered, so that the victims may be able to seek justice on the person or people responsible
for their death. This story is said to come from an old Native American legend.

During the person's "rebirth", the crow serves as a guide, helping the individual tap into his or
her potential and assisting in tracking down the wrongdoers. Other people do not see the
crow, only the reborn, unless he wants it. The Crow speaks to the reborn, often helping guide
them to exact their revenge.

In the film adaptations, the crow is a real bird and if harmed or killed, the reborn becomes
vulnerable. However, the Crow also seems to be much more enduring than a regular bird and
might possess some regeneration abilities (e.g. in The Crow film the bird survives after being
shot with a rifle).

Powers and abilities

While they are in possession of the Crow's powers, the reborn are endowed with several
unique abilities. As they are already dead, the reborn are incapable of feeling pain or fatigue
and are not capable of healing. In the films, however, they possess a supernatural ability to
recover from seemingly all injuries in a matter of moments. Chief among their physical
abilities is their inhuman strength and enhanced reflexes; able to quickly brutalize several
opponents simultaneously, even those who would be otherwise untouchable, as well as catch
fast-moving projectiles such as throwing knives with their bare hands. In both Wicked Prayer
and Stairway to Heaven, the source of the reborn's strength is attributed to their love for the
ones they've lost. Alternatively, Ashe Corven says in City of Angels that the fuel for his power
is pain. In either case, the Crow's magic is rooted in lost love.

Also, again in the films, the reborn possesses the ability to see images from his or her loved
one's memory when touching things he or she touched before, or to see the memories of a
person when touching them. In addition the reborn usually can send the images and feelings
from the memories already absorbed to the person whose eyes the reborn touches at the
moment; in The Crow, protagonist Eric Draven makes villain Top Dollar feel 30 hours of his
(Eric's) murdered girlfriend Shelly's pain in one moment. In The Crow: Stairway to Heaven, Eric
can see events that transpired simply by touching objects that belonged to someone.

Although the person brought back to life by the Crow is physically invulnerable, in the films
and later Crow comics they do have one weakness: they lose their power if the crow is
harmed or killed. In addition, the reborn lose their invincibility when they consider their
mission completed; in The Crow: Salvation, protagonist Alex Corvis is tricked into thinking that
he completed his mission, thus he becomes vulnerable. His guide Crow ultimately makes
Alex realize his mistake and rise again.

In the comic book The Crow: Waking Nightmares, it is stated that the Crow power is taken
from the reborn if they abandon their mission. In case of losing special powers the reborn
become vulnerable, start to rot, and rigor mortis sets in, as if the reborn were still in their
graves.

In The Crow: City of Angels and The Crow: Salvation, those resurrected by the Crow have the
ability to turn into crows themselves and possess the natural abilities of a crow, such as flight
and night vision.

Appearance
In the comic book, the origin of Eric's make-up is explained briefly as "painting his face in the
colors of joy". This indicates that he copied the Greek comedy masquerade mask in his and
Shelly's house. Contrary to the film, in the book Eric does not paint his face with white. The
white pale color comes from the fact that Eric is dead and it is just a corpse inhibited by a
soul. Joshua and Mark Leung do not wear any distinctive make-up, and Ashe's is provided by
Sarah, as in the film. Iris Shaw paints the semblance of a Crow on her face with the tail
covering her nose, and the wings covering her eyes. She removes it to face her final killer.
Michael Korby's makeup covers his neck and shoulders. The makeup is referred as "the mask
of death" and "the trails of Gorgon's blood" in The Crow: Wild Justice comic book. In The Crow:
Death and Rebirth, Jamie Osterberg's pale skin color and eye/mouth lines are not created by
make-up, however, and his hair has turned completely white. In The Crow: Curare, Carrie's pale
skin color is not accomplished by make-up, there is no horizontal line over the mouth, and the
vertical lines over the eyes are shorter and thinner.

According to O'Barr, Eric Draven is based on the face of Peter Murphy (of Bauhaus) and the
body of Iggy Pop.[2]

In all feature films, except The Crow: Salvation, the protagonist wears make-up that cover their
face. In the first film Eric Draven copies the pattern from one of the masquerade that
decorated his and Shelly's apartment, which consists of white paint placed over the face with
black paint around eyes, black vertical lines over and under eyes, black paint on the lips and a
black horizontal line across the mouth and cheeks, resembling a Glasgow smile. In The Crow:
City of Angels Ashe's make-up was provided by Sarah and looks similar. Jimmy's make-up in
The Crow: Wicked Prayer is similar as well, though there is no horizontal line over the mouth
and the vertical eye lines are shorter and thinner.

In the third film, The Crow: Salvation, Alex Corvis is executed in the electric chair, and his face
is burned by the metal helmet which was worn over his head during the execution. He
removes the burned skin following his resurrection, scarring his face around the eyes and
lips, thus forming a pattern similar to the classical make-up. However, there are two vertical
lines over each of his eyes and they cross with the horizontal lines on his mouth.

In The Crow: Stairway to Heaven TV series, Eric's "make-up" appears automatically whenever
he "changes" into The Crow. His fingernails become black, while his face becomes white, with
vertical lines over the eyes and short horizontal/diagonal lines extending from his lips, like a
smile; they disappear when he becomes 'normal'.

Even though not all the reborn wear make-up, they are still usually drawn in a certain style:
their lips are usually distinctively black, skin around eyes is black, while the eyes are
sometimes burning white. Generally the style of drawing reminds the pattern of the classical
makeup.

The resurrected souls in the Crow novels do not wear the traditional face paint/markings.

Comics

Eric
The protagonist of the original comic book. Eric and his fiancée, Shelly, are on their way back
from a romantic get-away, when their vehicle breaks down on a deserted road. A car full of
gang members stops, not to help, but to take advantage of the couple's misfortune. They
shoot Eric in the head paralysing him while they rape and kill his fiancée in the car, while Eric
dies hours later in the hospital. A year later, resurrected by The Crow, Eric exacts vengeance
on the men responsible for their deaths.

Following the original series, London Night Studios published the six-issue series The
Crow/Razor: Kill the Pain (#1-4, #0 and a Finale issue) in 1998, which saw Eric paired with
Everette Hartsoe's character, Razor. In it Eric is again returned to the land of the living, this
time to help Razor fight a demonic gang known as Pain. In the end Eric must face the events
which led to his death, and the realization that his soul cannot rest as he blames himself for
being unable to save Shelly. A follow-up magazine entitled The Crow/Razor: Nocturnal
Masque, featuring artwork of both characters with quotes attributed to each, was also
published.

Eric was also in a 10-issue series by Image Comics which reimagined the plot, adding
influences from the film. Eric and Shelly's lives are cut short when a wrong apartment number
leads a gang of drug lords to mistakenly murder them only days before their wedding. Now,
Eric haunts the city as the Crow, a shadow administering revenge for not only his loss, but for
others as well. A police officer enlists the aid of the Crow to uncover the truth about the jailed
suspect of a murdered 9-year-old girl. As the Crow is flushing out information about the
murder, he discovers that Shelly's grave has been desecrated and her body has been
removed. Another vigilante, a Native American named Walker, who communicates with a
wolf, begins killing local murderers.

Joshua Zane
Joshua appears in the three issue series The Crow: Dead Time, the follow-up to the original
graphic novel. Joshua is a Native American farmer of the Crow Nation who adopts the "white
man's way" and becomes a farmer. Joshua, along with his wife and child, are murdered by a
band of Confederate soldiers. A century later, Joshua is resurrected by the Crow and hunts
down the soldiers, who have been reincarnated as a biker gang.

Iris Shaw
Iris appears in the three issue series The Crow: Flesh and Blood and is the first woman to
assume the role. Iris is a Federal Conservation officer who is killed, along with her unborn
child, by terrorists. The Crow resurrects her to hunt them down. She seems to be not
completely invincible, as, according to the Crow, she must complete her mission before she
rots. Thus, she cannot really heal, and uses a stapler to repair her wounds.
Michael Korby
Michael appears in the three-issue series The Crow: Wild Justice. Michael and his wife are
murdered during a car jacking. He is brought back by two crows named Hugo and Manny
respectively, and must avenge his and his wife's death before the Gorgon blood running
through his veins runs out. The Gorgon god tattoos Michael's body, which gives him the
power to regenerate until the blood runs out.

Mark Leung
Mark appears in the four-issue series The Crow: Waking Nightmares. Mark and his wife are
murdered by the Chinese Mafia. Instead of going after their killers, Mark returns to save his
twin daughters, whom the mob have sold into slavery.

Leandre
Leandre appears in The French Crow, Vols. 2 and 3, published in France in 2007, in the two-
part story "The Medieval Crow". Leandre and his wife Jeanne are murdered and their son
Lestal stolen on the orders of Lord Arthuro, who is seeking an heir. Leandre achieves his
vengeance when he kills Arthuro, but accidentally kills Lestal as well. After his son's death,
Leandre is abandoned by his spirit crow and must wander the Earth until he learns the true
reason for his restless wandering.

Vincent
He appears in The French Crow, Vol. 4, published in France in 2010, in the story "La Fiancée du
Corbeau" ("Bride of the Crow"). Vincent is a young make-up artist in the 1930s who falls in
love with Evy, an actress. He tries to rescue Evy from being raped by a gang of stagehands
but is murdered by them, and he returns a year later, aided by a Spirit Crow, to seek
vengeance.
Elorah
She appears in The French Crow, Vols. 4 & 5, published in France in 2010, in the two-part story
"Le Sang des Innocents" ("Blood of the Innocent"). Elorah is an undercover police officer
investigating a narcotics baron; after being murdered and revived by a Spirit Crow, she must
now face not only her murderer but his creation: a cyborg that feeds on blood.

Jamie Osterberg
Appearing in the five issue series The Crow: Death and Rebirth, Jamie Osterberg is a foreign
exchange student studying in Tokyo, Japan. His fiancée Haruko and other friends vanish, only
to return possessed by someone else. Jamie finds out too much and is killed. Resurrected by
the power of The Crow, with a sword that seeks truth, he learns that the "possession" was
caused by a process that can insert one person's mind into another person's body and that
Haruko was taken because an old rich dying woman wanted a new life in Haruko's body.
Jamie hunts down those responsible to free the souls of his friends and be reunited with his
one true love, even if it means allying himself with Japanese ghosts and demons and
following a path of vengeance through the different Japanese Hells (Diyu).

a Nazi concentration camp. The Man, whose name is never revealed, is an inmate whom the
camp's commandant murders after losing to him in a game of chess. The Man is resurrected
by The Crow and wreaks a vengeance on all of the troops at the camp. He eventually finds
and kills his murderer, avenging himself and the other victims of the camp. He then
disappears into the night, intending to take revenge on the nearby town whose inhabitants
knew what was happening at the camp and did nothing about it.

Carrie / "Curare"
In the three issue series The Crow: Curare, Carrie is a young girl who was murdered by a serial
killer who preys on children. She is resurrected by a Spirit Crow (which she calls "Birdy"). She
is also the only protagonist in the "Crow" canon who does not personally engage in violence;
instead, she helps Detective Joe Salk, who investigated her murder, to find her killer and take
revenge.

Salvador
In The Crow: Pestilence, Salvador is a young boxer in Juárez, Mexico who refuses to take a
fall, but has no problem taking a drug gang's pay-off. When the gang kills Salvador and his
family, he returns years later in search of vengeance and forgiveness. The final showdown
not only reveals an unexpected ally and an equally unexpected truth about his family's
murder, but also pits him against el Santa Muerte ... Death itself.

David Amadio
In The Crow: Momento Mori, David is a Catholic altar boy who is killed along with his girlfriend
Sarah and dozens of others in a terrorist attack in Rome, Italy. Resurrected as the Crow, he
wreaks vengeance on those who committed the atrocity, but wiping out the terrorists does
not prove the end of the story, as the mastermind behind the attack and the reasons for it still
remain a mystery that he must solve before he can rest in peace.

Marcus Grieves
In The Crow / Hack/Slash, Marcus was a young gay man in 1980s San Francisco who was
murdered along with his lover by a gang of neo-Nazi skinheads in a homophobic attack. He

situation.

Angeles Cero
Also in The Crow / Hack/Slash, Angeles was a graffiti artist who was murdered along with her
twin sister by Angeles's abusive ex-lover, a police cadet. Angeles killed the killer, but fell under
the influence of her acquaintance Urban DK, an "urban shaman" who imprisoned her crow to
allow her to continue killing members of the San Francisco police force and political
establishment who helped cover up the murder.

In other media

Film

Eric Draven
Eric Draven was portrayed by actor Brandon Lee in the 1994 film The Crow, based on the
comic book. The film had the same basic premise, except that the couple were murdered in
their loft apartment because they were fighting tenant eviction instead of being murdered on
the side of the road for fun. The film supplies Eric and Shelly with the respective last names
Draven and Webster; in the graphic novel, they were referred to only by their first names. In
the film Eric depends on the Crow's health to be invincible, while the graphic novel depicts
Eric as totally invincible and the crow is a spirit guide that mostly only Eric sees. Bill
Skarsgård will play Eric Draven in the reboot.

Ashe Corven
Ashe Corven (portrayed by Vincent Perez) appears in The Crow: City of Angels, the sequel to
The Crow. He is resurrected by the magical crow to avenge the death of his son Danny, who
was killed along with him after accidentally witnessing a gang committing a murder. Like his
predecessor, Ashe kills each of the gang members until he meets the crime boss who
ordered his death. The crime boss, Judah Earl (portrayed by Richard Brooks), wishes to
obtain Ashe's powers for himself. Ashe is assisted by Sarah from the original film (here
portrayed by Mia Kirshner). Sarah provides Ashe's facial makeup in honor of Eric. While Ashe
is on his way to kill Judah, Judah captures his spirit crow and drinks its blood, gaining Ashe's
powers. While the film's ending has Ashe and Danny reunited, the original intended ending
leaves Ashe unable to move on to the Afterlife, condemning him to wander the Earth.
Alexander Frederick "Alex" Corvis
In The Crow: Salvation, the third film in the series, Alexander Frederick "Alex" Corvis (portrayed
by Eric Mabius) is convicted of murdering his girlfriend, Lauren (portrayed by Jodi Lyn
O'Keefe), and then executed in the electric chair. Alex is assisted by Lauren's younger sister,
Erin (portrayed by Kirsten Dunst), as they uncover the mystery surrounding the murder. Alex is
the only reborn whose make-up appeared mysteriously and wasn't provided purposefully, but
rather appeared in the form of burn scars on his face.

James "Jimmy" Cuervo

James Cuervo appears in The Crow: Wicked Prayer, the fourth film in the series, which was
based on the fifth book of the Crow series of the same name (Dan Cody was the character's
name in the book).

As in the book, James "Jimmy" Cuervo (portrayed by Edward Furlong) and his girlfriend Lily
(Leticia Hardin in the novel and portrayed by Emmanuelle Chriqui in the film) are hunted down
by a gang of devil worshippers who want to steal her eyes for use in an outlandish ritual. She
and Jimmy are both killed in the process. Jimmy then goes on a journey to avenge his and his
girlfriend's death and take down the gang in the process.

Television

Eric Draven
Eric was also portrayed by Mark Dacascos in the television series The Crow: Stairway to
Heaven in 1998. This version of Eric differed slightly from the other versions in that his
mission wasn't about revenge, but about redemption.[3] 22 episodes were produced in which
Eric acts as a vigilante helping the needy, before the series was pulled in 1999.
Hannah Foster
Played by Bobbie Phillips, she appears in The Crow: Stairway to Heaven. Hannah Foster is
brought back to life one year after she and her daughter are killed. Like Draven, Hannah has a
Spirit Crow and possesses all of the Crow's powers, but unlike Eric, she constantly battles
between the need for redemption and her lust for vengeance; also, her methods for dealing
with her opposition are far more severe than Draven's.

Toys
NECA released Cult Classics Icons Series 1 Action Figure Eric Draven (The Crow). Hot Toys
released The Crow (Eric Draven) 1/6th scale collectible figure.

Novels

William Blessing
He appears in The Crow: Quoth the Crow, the first published novel in the series. Blessing is a
popular horror writer who is murdered by his jealous protégé Donald Marquette, aided by a
goth gang with literary aspirations. His wife is viciously raped in the encounter, and Blessing
is brought back to exact vengeance. Blessing's body is continually on the verge of rotting
away, but his willpower to complete his mission is the only thing holding him together. It is
also implied that Blessing's healing abilities are actually the result of eating his victims.
Jared Poe
He appears in The Crow: The Lazarus Heart, the second novel in the series. Poe is a
controversial S&M photographer who becomes the target of a serial killer in Louisiana who
preys on gay men and transgender people. He is wrongfully arrested by members of a
homophobic police force and convicted for the murder of his lover (who was actually
murdered by the serial killer), and while on death row is murdered by a fellow inmate whose
brother was one of the serial killer's victims and who believed that Poe was the killer. Upon
his rebirth, he tries to track down the real killer with the help of his lover's transgender sister,
while also avenging himself on the corrupt police officers who were responsible for his arrest,
conviction and death.

Amy Carlisle
She appears in The Crow: Clash by Night, the third novel in the series. Amy is a day care owner
who is killed in a bombing, along with some of the children she watches, when a militia group
calling themselves The Sons of America tries to kill a popular senator who was supposed to
have been visiting the center but who pulled out at the last minute. Six months after the
bombing, Amy is resurrected by a Spirit Crow, but discovers that her husband Rick has moved
on with her best friend, who survived the blast. During her acts of vengeance against the
militia group's members, Amy is seen and recognized by Rick, who then attempts to infiltrate
the militia group.

Stephen Lelliott
He appears in The Crow: Temple of Night, the fourth novel in the series. In turn-of-the-century
Bangkok, the Klong Toey shantytowns are home to shadowy erotic emporiums where
millionaire celebrities act out their darkest sexual fantasies, protected by money, influence,
and American diplomacy. Stephen Lellicott is a young American journalist assigned to
expose the latest cover-up, but he's about to break the two cardinal rules of journalism: don't
fall in love, and don't get killed.

Dan Cody
He appears in The Crow: Wicked Prayer, the fifth novel in the series and the basis for the film
of the same name. He and his girlfriend Leticia Hardin are murdered by John Church and Kyra
Damon, who have learned about the power of The Crow, who want immortality and who need
Leticia's eyes to achieve it. Dan is resurrected, then goes on a journey to avenge his and his
girlfriend's deaths.

Billy Parker and Dren

They appear in The Crow: Hellbound, the sixth novel published in 2001. In this book, a demon
named Dren is looking for salvation; the Devil's fiery underworld has become a foreign place
to him and feels he is different from the other souls. After escaping from Hell, Dren must
save a single soul in order to pass on to the heavens above. Billy is a young hoodlum working
for a big-time mobster, and like Dren he has also changed and wants out of the seedy
underworld he calls his home. Neither the mob nor Hell look kindly on deserters; the Devil has
sent two rogue demons to stop Dren and the mob has hired a conjurer named Nadja to kill
Billy. In the end, the two must call on the powers of the Crow to save them both and to
escape their own hells — waging a full-scale war on the mobsters of Earth above and the lord
of darkness below.

Lionel Boulet
Lionel appears in Sarah: The Tears of the Crow, the seventh novel published in 2020. The novel
is set in Detroit, 1992. The crime and chaos spreading throughout the city is about to
disappear when a series of events disrupts everything. Young Sarah is scarred to the depths
of her soul when she confronts her past, and her present is her future.

In popular culture

Eric Draven (alongside his crow)

appears in the Robot Chicken episode
"Cannot Be Erased, So Sorry", voiced by
Simon Pegg. In a segment that
parodies The Wizard of Oz, the Nerd
(voiced by Seth Green) spices up his
dream by imagining Eric Draven in
place of the Scarecrow (along with
Optimus Prime replacing the Tin Man
and Lion-O replacing the Cowardly
Lion). When engaging a flying monkey
at the castle of the Wicked Witch of the
West, Eric explains the meaning of
existence in such a depressing way
that the flying monkey hangs himself.
Eric then sheds a single tear.
In the season two episode of the
Comedy Central program Workaholics
titled "Teenage Mutant Ninja
Roommates", Anders is shown to have
attended Eric Draven Middle School.
Professional wrestler Sting used the
Crow facepaint for his darker persona
in late 1996 suggested by Scott Hall
and still uses a modified version of it to
this day.[4] The original face paint was
a near identical replica of Eric Draven's
face paint with the exception of a
frown being painted on his lips instead
 of a smile. The modified versions
include longer trails on the eyes and
mouth, resembling black blood. He
also briefly merged the look with that
of actor Heath Ledger's interpretation
of Joker in The Dark Knight during his
battle with Hulk Hogan and Eric
Bischoff's villainous group Immortal in
TNA before returning to the modified
Crow styling.
