Falconspeare CoverFalconspeare, the third horror-humor graphic novel from Warwick Johnson-Cadwell, Mike Mignola, and Dave Stewart, is now available. See what people are saying:

Falconspeare is an eerie Victorian-style mystery with an off-kilter, charming twist in the next knockout collaboration from Mike Mignola and Warwick Johnson-Cadwell! Monster hunters extraordinaire, Professor Meinhardt, Mr. Knox, and Ms. Van Sloan, have teamed up to slay spooks and investigate the uncanny before, but now they'll tackle a question that's haunted them for years: What happened to their friend, vampire slayer extraordinaire James Falconspeare?

Rendered in Johnson-Cadwell's signature loose, expressive style, and with cover art from Mignola and colorist Dave Stewart, this hardcover will be a treat for fans of Mr. Higgins Comes Home and Our Encounters with Evil, as well as folks new to the world Johnson-Cadwell and Mignola have created. The new volume is available now wherever comics and books are sold.
