Dark Horse Comics has been turning Neil Gaiman’s short stories and novels into comics over the past few years, and in the lead up to New York Comic-Con, they’ve announced two new projects with the writer of Good Omens and American Gods.
This week brings word that Rafael Albuquerque, Rafael Scavone and Dave Stewart will adapt Gaiman’s “A Study in Emerald,” a supernatural mystery set in the world of Sherlock Holmes and H.P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu. Per the release, “The heart-pounding tale features the brilliant detective and his faithful partner as they attempt to solve a horrific murder of cosmic proportions. The complex investigation takes the Baker Street investigators from the slums of Whitechapel all the way to the Queen’s Palace.”
And last week Dark Horse announced more American Gods comics, to tie in with the TV show and novel of the same name. American Gods: My Ainsel launches next March, by P. Craig Russell and Scott Hampton, who worked on Dark Horse’s first American Gods miniseries.
Glenn Fabry and Adam Brown will return to create the covers, while David Mack will provide variants. You can see some of their work below.
