This collects all of the Grandville miniseries along with annotated notes in the back from Bryan Talbot。 These are pretty great as Talbot includes a ton of Easter Eggs such as a drunk Paddington Bear walking down the street or the Cat in the Hat working as a mime。Grandville is an anthropomorphic, steampunk world where Napoleon conquered most of Europe 200 years ago and England has just recently regained its independence。 Detective Inspector LeBrock of Scotland Yard is a cross between Sherlock Ho This collects all of the Grandville miniseries along with annotated notes in the back from Bryan Talbot。 These are pretty great as Talbot includes a ton of Easter Eggs such as a drunk Paddington Bear walking down the street or the Cat in the Hat working as a mime。Grandville is an anthropomorphic, steampunk world where Napoleon conquered most of Europe 200 years ago and England has just recently regained its independence。 Detective Inspector LeBrock of Scotland Yard is a cross between Sherlock Holmes and James Bond。 Talbot has created an inventive original setting for his stories of mystery and adventure。 His art is detailed and inventive。 I'm all in for Grandville。Reviews for each story are below:GrandvilleGrandville: Mon AmourGrandville: Bête NoireGrandville: NoëlGrandville: Force Majeure 。。。more

I got to read an ARC of this book。 I’m surprised I’m the first reviewer but it’s a reprint of an series I hadn’t read yet so the fans have already seen everything… For the rest of us-I liked this but I enjoy steampunk and I do like a good Sherlock Holmes tribute。 I think this won’t be the book for everyone though。 The men are Men and the women are very period appropriate… There’s also the occasional bit of language that will probably offend more delicate sensibilities but again, it’s period appr I got to read an ARC of this book。 I’m surprised I’m the first reviewer but it’s a reprint of an series I hadn’t read yet so the fans have already seen everything… For the rest of us-I liked this but I enjoy steampunk and I do like a good Sherlock Holmes tribute。 I think this won’t be the book for everyone though。 The men are Men and the women are very period appropriate… There’s also the occasional bit of language that will probably offend more delicate sensibilities but again, it’s period appropriate and not every character is a terribly nice being。I did get a kick out of the occasional Easter egg character in the background。 Why shouldn’t there be a Paddington Bear walking down the street, or rather stumbling drunkenly down the street?The man character is a gruff badger detective with a good heart somewhere deep beneath the bared teeth and fisticuffs, very Holmes in his deductive powers, his dapper rat sidekick makes a good Watson。 If you also like mysteries and steampunk this one is worth reading。 。。。more
