Wormwood: Gentleman Corpse Volume 1

Wormwood: Gentleman Corpse Volume 1 by Templesmith, Ben. Hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781600103759.

At last, a special hardcover edition of Ben Templesmith’s (Welcome to Hoxford, 30 Days of Night, Fell) all-eerie and humorous series, Wormwood: Gentleman Corpse. Collecting the original Wormwood story, “The Taster,” plus the four-issue “Birds, Bees, Blood & Beer,” in which we discover that things are awakening in the city. Things that have a nasty habit of leaving mutilated bodies in their wake and it all reeks of demons and dark gods up to no good. Owing a favor to his lazy ghost-cop buddy Trotsky, Wormwood, the gentleman corpse, and his oddball entourage are brought in to investigate the case (or at least hopefully not stuff it up too much.) Also includes additional bonus sketches, art, and original comic pages by Templesmith.
