DR JEKYLL AND MR HOLMES COMIC BOOK #1

RARE and OUT OF PRINT COLLECTORS ITEM.
SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE'S CREATION MEETS ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON'S.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Writer Steven Philip Jones came up with an interesting premise: What would happen if the world’s most infamous dual personality came face-to-face (as it were) with the world’s most famous detective? Richard Enfield’s chance observance of a bit of cruelty on the part of Mr. Hyde starts off the adventure. Hyde, unfeelingly, had run down a small child, and under the threat of mob action was forced to make reparations. Enfield noticed that the payment to the girl was made partly in gold, and partly in the form of a check from Dr. Henry Jekyll. Thinking it most strange that such a respected man as Dr. Jekyll would hand over this large sum to a brute like Hyde, Enfield asked Sherlock Holmes to look into the matter. What follows is a fine tale of detection which deftly weaves together the tale of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde with an old-fashioned Sherlock Holmes mystery.
