“A darn good romp!” – Oscar-winning director Guillermo Del toro, Pinocchio, The Shape Of Water, Hellboy
“Classic Sherlock Holmes! You can smell the chimney-smoke and feel the clatter of hooves. Here’s the character we all know and love, given a fresh polish for the 21st century!” – Ian Rankin, best-selling author (Rebus)
Sherlock Holmes and The Empire Builders The Gene Genie is a two-part graphic novel adventure starring the world’s greatest detective as you’ve never seen him before.
Volume Two has Holmes at his lowest ebb, losing his closest friend and confidante to prime minister Oswald Mosley’s thugs. But a cornered man is perhaps the most dangerous, so can he with the assistance of rebel Mohock Franklyn Miller, Mosley’s former cats paw Six and others bring down Mosley and restore England to its status quo?
Under two exclusive covers by hot artist Dan Panosian (Conan, Nightwing) and Frazer Irving (Batman, Flash Gordon), the second volume is even heftier than the first. Volume Two will be 120 pages oversized hardcover with dustjackets and around 96 pages of story. It will also include a colour gallery section with original pin-ups from the likes of acclaimed US comic illustrator and painter George Pratt (Enemy Ace, Batman: Harvest Breed, Wolverine: Netsuke), Tomm Coker (Black Monday Mysteries), John K Snyder III (Doctor Midnite), Mike Perkins (Batman: The First Knight) plus script pages and pencil pages from the second instalment. Bennett is returning as the interior artist, offering his uniquely gothic renderings that have garnered him fans internationally.
Cover artist Frazer Irving will also be there to sign copies of Holmes volume 2 with his cover.
We shall also have prints we are giving away with purchases at the table while stocks last
