"Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth." Those are the words of Mr. Sherlock Holmes, the world's first consulting detective, yet even he finds his skills tested to their limit as he and his erstwhile comrade Dr. John Watson are confronted with the most extraordinary case of their career - the dead are returning to life! Can a plague of Biblical proportions be far behind for Victorian London? And who - or what - is behind the resurrection of these ravenous revenants?
From renowned writer Ian Edginton (STORMWATCH: PHD) and acclaimed international artist Davide Fabbri (Star Wars) comes the first chapter in an incredible new 6-issue Sherlock Holmes adventure! Featuring a cover by original Walking Dead artist Tony Moore!

BONUS REVIEW by GARY OWENS
Not a fan of zombie comic books, especially when they revel in displaying maggot-filled corpses (thankfully, only on the cover here). But then I see Sherlock Holmes, and I see a strong effort to get the feel for Victorian times (“Would y’cop a load o’that!”). Throw in some unexpected advanced high tech (can you say James Bond a century early?), not to mention ungory undead, and we got a winner. Can Sherlock Holmes solve all of these mysteries? I’m a’buying.
