Los Monstruos Book One TPB out this week!

So exciting first news for this website, namely the fact that the Los Monstruos Vol One trade paperback from Dark Horse is out. I love this series and I am incredibly proud of the work done by myself and my brilliant partner in things monstrous, Jesus Mereno.

For anyone unfamiliar with the series, it’s set in a city unlike any other, comprised solely of 1900s-1950s movie monsters as well as monstrous creatures of folklore. It’s very much a working, day-to-day city… except for all its inhabitants being monsters.

The main hero of this first arc is Perry Cutter, a P.I. who just happens to also be a werewolf. The case he undertakes begins as a simple missing person but in true private detective fashion soon becomes something much more complicated and dangerous. In the course of the case, he must deal with a vampire crime gang, mob-boss casino owner Ramses Ra and his band of Egyptian mummy gangsters, as well as corrupt cops and the seeming betrayal of his best-friend and fellow ex-cop man-monster Clyde. The series is a crime story and a monster yarn all in one. And combined with the dangers, Perry is also trying to go on a first-date with a vampire waitress named Rosie who works at his local diner, so we can only hope he gets a break from all the action.

It’s a fun exciting read and as I say, a work I’m very proud of.

You can get it at your local comic store as well here…
