Just Four Days Left To Support Sherlock Holmes And The Empire Builders And Grab A Signed Walt Simonson Limited Print Edition
Not Long Left To Join Our Supporters
The campaign to fund Sherlock Holmes And The Empire Builders The Gene Genie Vol.1 ends on Thursday 27 July and there are just 15 signed Walt Simonson plate editions left too…
Sherlock Holmes and the Empire Builders is an alternate world sci fi epic adventure featuring the world’s greatest detective as you’ve never seen him before. When Dr Watson leaves Holmes to join Crick to unravel the human DNA helix, he begins to realise that he is working for the world’s most evil man. So Holmes has to join forces with an unlikely group of rebels to defeat Watson’s employer.
Testing the waters with three shorts which ran in Tripwire magazine, we felt that now was the time to debut this in its own graphic novel series. This will be a hardcover with a dust jacket running at 84 pages with 64 pages of story plus character sketches, script pages and an interview offering extra information on the series.
Cover #1: Walter Simonson
