Our dynamic detective duo face an explosive end, as original creator George Mann brings his steampunk mystery novels to comics!
Writer George Mann (Dark Souls, Doctor Who, Warhammer 40,000) brings his steampunk mystery novels to comics in a new story for their 10th anniversary, alongside artist Dan Boultwood (It Came!, The Phoenix)!
The first Newbury & Hobbes comic series comes to an explosive end, as steampunk detective duo Sir Maurice Newbury and Miss Veronica Hobbes finally face off against an old enemy. Is he back from the dead? Or is he simply Undying?
Plus: a brand-new Newbury & Hobbes prose short by George Mann, serialized in each issue!
Fans of Alan Moore’s work will enjoy Mann’s depiction of Victorian asylums, slums, aristocratic soirees and things that go bump in the night.
