History:For those of you not familiar with the story of The Crow here is a basic summary...On October 30, Devil's Night in Detroit, Sergeant Albrecht is at the scene of a crime where Shelly Webster has been beaten and raped,and her fiancé Eric Draven then died on the street outside, having been stabbed and thrown out of the window. The couple were to be married the following day, on Halloween. As he leaves for the hospital with Shelly,Albrecht meets a young girl, Sarah,who says that she is their friend, and that they take care of her. Albrecht tells her that Shelly is dying.
One year later, a crow taps on the grave stone of Eric Draven; Eric awakens and climbs out of his grave. Meanwhile, a low level street gang, headed by T-Bird,is setting fires in the city. Eric goes to his old apartment and finds it derelict.He has flashbacks to the murders,remembering that those responsible were T-Bird and his gang:Tin Tin,Funboy and Skank.Eric soon discovers that any wounds he receives heal immediately.Guided by the crow,he sets out to avenge his and Shelly's murders by killing the perpetrators.
The crow helps Eric locate Tin Tin;Eric kills him and then takes his leather trench coat.He then goes to the pawn shop where Tin Tin pawned Shelly's engagement ring the year before.Eric forces the owner,Gideon,to return the ring and blows up the shop,letting Gideon live so that he can warn the others.Eric finds Funboy with Sarah's mother,Darla.After killing Funboy Eric talks to Darla making her realize that Sarah needs her to be a good mother.He visits Albrecht,explaining who he is and why he is here.Albrecht tells him what he knows about Shelly's death and that he watched as she suffered for thirty hours before dying.Eric touches Albrecht and receives from him the pain felt by Shelly during those hours.Sarah and her mother begin to repair their strained relationship.Sarah goes to Eric's apartment and talks to him.She tells him that she misses him and Shelly.Eric explains that,even though they cannot be friends anymore,he still cares about her.
As T-Bird and Skank stop at a convenience store to pick up some supplies, Eric arrives and kidnaps T-Bird.Skank follows the pair and witnesses Eric killing T-Bird;he escapes and goes to Top Dollar,a top level criminal who controls all the street gangs in the city.Top Dollar and his lover/half-sister Myca have become aware of Eric's actions through various reports from witnesses.Top Dollar holds a meeting with his associates where they discuss new plans for their Devil's Night criminal activities.Eric arrives looking for Skank.A gun fight ensures the deaths of nearly all present,with Eric succeeding in killing Skank.Top Dollar, Myca and Grange,Top Dollar's right hand man, escape.
Eric,having finished his quest, returns to his grave.Sarah goes to say goodbye to him and he gives her Shelly's engagement ring. She is then abducted by Grange who takes her into the church where Top Dollar and Myca are waiting.Through the crow,Eric realizes what has happened and goes to rescue her.Grange shoots the crow as it flies into the church,making Eric lose his invincibility.Myca grabs the wounded crow,intending to take its mystical power.Albrecht arrives,intending to pay his respects to Eric,just after Eric is shot and wounded.Top Dollar grabs Sarah and climbs the bell tower as a fight ensues,with Grange being killed.The crow escapes Myca's grip,clawing her eyes and sending her down the bell tower to her death.When Albrecht is wounded, Eric climbs to the roof of the church on his own.There,Top Dollar admits ultimate responsibility for what happened to Eric and Shelly.In their fight,Eric gives Top Dollar the thirty hours of pain he absorbed from Albrecht;the sensation sends Top Dollar over the roof of the church to his death.Sarah and Albrecht go to the hospital,and Eric is reunited with Shelley at their graves.
This is how the story went in both the graphic novel and the movie.
Now,16 years later,the powers that be have decided that Eric is needed once more and have,after a bit of "convincing" brought him back to the land of the living in a dark and corrupt and dangerous city named Gotham to help in cleansing it of the wicked element that has ruled it's streets with blood and terror and violence for far too long.
Note:This is assuming only the first movie happened,since the others never should have been made in my opinion,and continues from there.
Character is from:The movie The Crow and also from the Graphic Novel.
