James O'Barr is an American graphic artist, best known as the creator of the comic book series The Crow.
In 1978, O'Barr's fiancée, Bethany, was killed by a drunk driver, and he joined the Marines in an effort to cope with the loss. He was stationed in Germany and illustrated combat manuals for the military. While living in Berlin in 1981, O'Barr began work on The Crow as a means of dealing with his personal tragedy. O'Barr was further inspired by a Detroit newspaper account of the murder of a young couple over a $20 engagement ring. After his discharge from the Marines, O'Barr continued his painting and illustration as well as doing lots of odd jobs, including working for a Detroit body shop. The Crow sat on a shelf for seven years, but at last someone wanted to publish it: Gary Reed of Caliber Press. In The Crow, the protagonist and his fiancée are murdered by a gang of criminals. He then returns from the dead to hunt their killers.
O'Barr's own hope that his project would result in a personal catharsis went unfulfilled, he told an interviewer in 1994, saying, "[A]s I drew each page, it made me more self-destructive, if anything....There is pure anger on each page". The Crow has sold more than 750,000 copies worldwide.
The book was adapted into a successful film of the same name in 1994, but it resulted in further tragedy. Brandon Lee, who played the main character, was accidentally shot and killed during filming, survived by his then-fiancee Eliza Hutton.

People once believed, that when someone dies, a crow carries their soul to the land of the dead. But sometimes, something so bad happens, that a terrible sadness is carried with it and the soul can't rest. Then sometimes, just sometimes the crow could bring that soul back to put the wrong things right
If the people we love are stolen from us, the way to have them live on is to never stop loving them. Buildings burn, people die, but real love is forever...
( İnsanlar eskiden suna inanirdi. Biri oldugu zaman bir karga gelip onun ruhunu oluler diyarina tasirmis..
Ama bazen çok kotu bir sey olur korkunc bir uzuntu ruhla beraber tasinir ve ruh dinlenemez ve bazen karga yanlis olan seyler duzenlemek icin ruhu geri getirebilir.....
Herseyin dogru oldugunu dusunurdum, arkadaslar,aileler,duygular..ama artik biliyorum eger sevgi gercekse ve iki insan beraber olmak istiyorsa kimse onlari ayiramaz...
Eger sevdıgimiz kisiler bizden calinmissa , Onlari uzun yaşatmanin yolu, Onlari sevmekten asla vazgecmemektir... binalar yanar, insanlar olur ama gercek ASk Olumsuzdur... )
