FROM THE ASHES OF FRANKENSTEIN’S DESTRUCTION… A NEW KIND OF DETECTIVE IS BORN!
This winter, acclaimed writer George Northy (Yuletide, EC’s Shiver SuspenStories) and Eisner Award–nominated artist Caitlin Yarsky (Dead Teenagers, Black Hammer) invite you to a distant castle to behold a meticulously crafted, first-of-its-kind comics murder mystery starring the greatest man-made monster of all…
Decades after his creation, the creature once known as Frankenstein’s Monster has reinvented himself as Europe’s most formidable mind. After years underground, his scars have faded and his genius-level intellect has tamed his hulking nature… revealing an extraordinary talent for solving the world’s most inexplicable mysteries. Today, he is Prometheus Graft: gentleman detective, expert investigator… and something still not quite entirely human.
Now, on the cusp of a new century set to be ruled by science over superstition, Graft believes he has finally conquered his monstrous past… until he is summoned to the remote Romanian castle of Death’s End, where an immortal lord has assembled Europe’s most feared supernatural beings to broker a long-lasting peace. But their fragile treaty will soon be shattered when the corpse of a powerful family’s envoy is found murdered in the castle’s hedge maze… turning witch against werewolf and vampire against ghoul as suspicion and bloodshed spiral.
With only his instincts and a bloodstained trail of clues to guide him, can Prometheus Graft solve the slayings at Death’s End before a new day breaks… and all hell follows with it?
