This month’s sponsor: Sherlock Holmes and the Empire Builders
Sherlock Holmes and the Empire Builders is an epic, alternate world sci-fi adventure featuring the world’s greatest detective as people have never seen him before! When Watson leaves Holmes to help Crick unravel the DNA helix and finds himself in the employ of England’s most evil man, Holmes is forced to team up with an unlikely group to defeat this monstrous figure and return England to its status quo. But can he defeat the machinations of the man at the rudder of the country? Published in one volume for the first time, this new edition of the award-winning Holmes graphic novel series is graced with a brand-new wraparound cover from Eisner winner Laurence Campbell (Hellboy, The One Hand) and a brand-new introduction from legendary writer JM DeMatteis (MoonShadow, Kraven’s Last Hunt). “A darn good yarn!” said Guillermo Del Toro, Oscar winning director (The Shape of Water, Frankenstein, and Hellboy).
