I am a big fan of Mike Mignola's Hellboy. Sir Edward Grey: Witchfinder: In the Service of Angels: Volume 1 (story by Mike Mignola and art by Ben Stenbeck) is set in the same Hellboy universe (Hellboy, B.P.R.D., Abe Sapien, and, yes, even Lobster Johnson).
RECOMMENDATION: I am now also a big fan of Mike Mignola's Witchfinder. If you are a fan of the Hellboy universe then you will want to add this to your collection. There is a second volume that I will also be adding to my collection.
REVIEW: Sir Edward Grey is Mignola's tribute to the Victorian occult detective. The stories are typical Mignola stories i.e., filled with references to legends, tales, and mythology that are twisted to meet the needs of his story. Grey is a good tribute to the Victorian occult detective. The art feels like Mignola's art without being an exact copy of Mignola's art.
