Sherlock Holmes And The Empire Builders In Colour Resolicited To Feb Next Year Now From Brilliant
The Wait Will Be A Little Longer For Holmes In Colour In The Comic Format
2023 is a big year for Tripwire and also for Sherlock Holmes and The Empire Builders. We have just kicked off our pre launch for our zoop campaign for the first volume in our original hardcover. Our friend Scott Braden is also publishing Sherlock Holmes and The Empire Builders#0 through his new Brilliant Enterprises publishing company but to avoid any confusion even though the contents will be very different between the two projects (the graphic novels will feature a brand new story split into two episodes with brand new covers from Walt Simonson and Mark Chiarello while the comic will run just the three shorts in colour) we have decided to put the Brilliant comic back to come out in Feb 2024…
Sherlock Holmes and The Empire Builders Zero issue
Under a color cover by artist Andy Bennett and colorist John Charles, this unique one-shot comic presents the first three acclaimed Sherlock Holmes & The Empire Builders shorts in color for the first time, accompanied by a brand-new prose tale from The Empire Builders co-creators Joel Meadows and Andy Bennett! For fans of the world’s most famous fictional detective, this one-shot is a great introduction to the unique take that Meadows and Bennett have taken with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Consulting Detective.
“When you think there is nothing more to be said or done with Sherlock Holmes, along come Meadows and Bennett to breathe fresh life into the great detective.”-Fantasy legend, Michael Moorcock (Elric, The Eternal Champion series).
‘Drawing from the wonderful classic that is Sherlock Holmes, Joel Meadows and Tripwire have once again delivered an electrifying story in a dynamically driven comic spread’.- Richard Taylor, Wētā Workshop
“A brilliant celebration of an iconic character. Joel Meadows delivers in style, with a refreshing take on Sherlock Holmes and the art by Andy Bennett is just what you need in a comic. I can’t recommend it enough. “-Mark London CEO/CCO Mad Cave Studios and Writer of HUNT.KILL.REPEAT
Perfect Bound.
ITEM number details will be available in the next few months
People can support the black and white graphic novel on zoop now though which will feature brand new covers from Walt Simonson and Mark Chiarello
