(W) Christopher Cantwell (A/CA) Victor Santos
Back in print for the first time in over 75 years... the world's only hard-boiled boy detective — KID MAROON. From the shared genius of Christopher Cantwell (Iron Man, Doctor Doom) and Victor Santos (Polar, Violent Love) comes an all-new Kid Maroon graphic novel, featuring the rich history of Pep Shepard's beloved boy detective, including strips long considered lost to time. Two years ago, Walden Maroon outgrew his small town, his loving parents, and the low stakes mysteries involving missing butterflies and stolen cookies. Since then, he's dwelled within the cesspit of Crimeville, where murders, vice, and corruption are the city’s bread and butter. But at 12 years old, Kid is weary. When a string of horrific killings and arsons spring up in the streets, can he crack the case with his quick wits and slingshot? Or does Kid Maroon secretly yearn for what he's never gotten to be... a kid?
