Product Description

Review
The Ultimate Answer October 2004: " Wow. This was geat. A kind if Shaun of the Dead meets Film Noire."

Product Description
From acclaimed masters of the monstrous, Steve Niles and Ben Templesmith, comes a dark mystery, gas-bloated with black humour and blood-red action! Werewolves stealing. Vampires mugging. Ghouls beaten in their own sewers. A man murdered by monsters - with a letter opener. The connection? Private investigator Cal McDonald is damned (literally) if he knows. But, like a raging fever, the heat is building on Cal to come up with answers, and there'll be a lot more blood and sweat spilt before he can unveil the horrific truth! A witches' brew of crime noir and modern horror, and bristling with crackerjack humour, Criminal Macabre is the new must-read for any child of the Dark One!

5.0 out of 5 stars UNDEAD NOIR!, 29 Jan 2005
By Matt_K (St Albans, UK) - See all my reviews
Combining supernatural horror with a sleazy and dangerous present-day Los Angeles and a hero who seems to be equal parts James Woods and Charles Bukowski makes "Criminal Macabre" something very special indeed. Buffy this ain't, although there is humour here (of a much darker tone). The grim scratchiness of the artwork perfectly complements the ass-kicking storyline, and gives it a hallucinatory quality that will have you hooked from page one. Creepy, action-packed, drunken...what more can I say, it's brilliant.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ghostbuster for the MTV generation, 16 Jan 2008
By A. Page (Norwich, Norfolk, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you're familiar with Ben templesmiths artwork (I'm a big fan)
or Steve Niles writing, then this is another GN you won't want to miss.
Think Hellblazer with a good mix of Ghouls, Vampires and Werewolves.
This guy is no english gentleman (well neither is John Constantine actually), shoot first don't bother with the questions, in a crime story from the underbelly of L.A which is both clever and very funny (if you like your humour black)
The only negative point I have is the ending felt slightly rushed, a great idea and build up, only to be over in just a couple of pages, but that's only an opinion and I would still highly recommend.
