Presenting a beautiful, lushly illustrated new edition of Arthur Conan Doyle's first Sherlock Holmes novel.


Sherlock Holmes, the world’s greatest detective, first appeared in the 1887 novel “A Study in Scarlet,” which met very little fanfare until the character found more widespread popularity through his serialized short stories in The Strand Magazine. That first adventure recounts the first meeting of Holmes and the man who would become his stalwart partner against crime, Dr. John Watson. And now, that first sprawling adventure is vividly retold through the animated vision of illustrator Vincent Mallie.

The first volume of the hit webcomic.


The Other Badguys is a superhero comedy heist comic with a cast of characters supremely out of their depth. Dealing with daddy issues, bad breakups, decades-old grudges, and profound professional inadequacies, the whole endeavor is pretty much a foregone conclusion. Badguys never win: There are rules, after all.
