For centuries, Earth was inhabited by hordes of vampires, werewolves, demons, and zombies. But generations ago, Sela Mathers, the Guardian of the Nexus, was able to banish these creatures to a long forgotten Realm called the Shadowlansd. For over a century, these hideous monsters have remained trapped there… unitl now. A nameless, god-like being has released legions of monsters from the Shadowlands back onto Earth, and now it's up to four expert monster hunters to do what they do best: find them and destroy them. Follow the beautiful but deadly vampire hunter, Liesel Van Helsing, and the grizzled werewolf hunter, Roman Asher, as they take the fight to the creatures that threaten this world.

I failed to post this new miniseries during the December 3 2009 comic book release week, so here are the first two issues. It is actually an online serial novel by Michael Alan Nelson published by BOOM! as a four-part mini. To give you an idea (SPOILER ALERT!) the blurb for the online novel reads: "When a family heirloom given into Daniel Asher’s protection is stolen, he must get it back before it can be used to unleash his family’s dark secret upon the world. But the closer he comes to finding it, the deeper he slips below the surface of the mundane and into a deadly world of magic and myth where he will be forced to confront the darkest demon of his past: how he came to be called DINGO." Interesting enough to wait for the next issue. Minutemen scans.

Featuring stories by Nathan Fox, Lauren Petty, Jim Zub, David Winnic, Erica Schultz, Robin Furth, Clay Chapman, Hope Larson, Laurie Penny, Peter Milligan, and more!

Ha pasado mucho tiempo desde que Anarcoma, el detective travesti, viese la luz en las páginas de la prensa más insolente de los primeros años 80. Aquellas revistas desvergonzadas ya no existen, como no existen las Ramblas, el barrio chino ha sido aniquilado y Barcelona entera es otra ciudad. Pero el mito sigue arañando el pavimento con sus tacones de aguja…
