From the legendary creator of THE MAXX and co-creator of SANDMAN, Sam Kieth, and the considerably less-legendary creator of CHEW, John Layman comes the new series Eleanor & The Egret from AfterShock Comics.

The most daring art thief in Paris has struck again, and the police have assigned their best detective to the case. His only clue? A single white feather left at the scene. Could this feather belong to the thief? To the thief’s accomplice, an oversized talking egret? Or will his investigation lead him to somewhere even stranger? (Answer: all of the above.)

Presenting a peculiar and unforgettable tale of birds and banditry, paintings and pets, larceny, love and… lamprey-wielding assassins? 

"I’d call Eleanor & the Egret of a surrealist fable, or even a surrealist romance. If anything, it’s my attempt to do a Miyazaki film," said John Layman in an interview with IGN. "It’s weird, and coming up for concrete explanations for the weirdness is not a particular priority. But if you can accept this weird world, it should be an enjoyable ride, and it’s not so weird readers won’t understand what’s going on."

Look for Eleanor & The Egret #1 in the upcoming February PREVIEWS and in comic shops this April!
