Officer Sean Maguire

A beat cop stepping out of the mid-nineties independent comics scene, Officer Sean Maguire made his debut in Blood Letting #1 (1995), brought to life by Chynna Clugston and Guy Major for FantaCo Enterprises. This small-press gem surrounds him with a compelling cast — Chretian, Maxamillian, Cosette Cautier, fellow Officer Bailey, and the intriguingly named Satori Valentine — suggesting a world where law enforcement brushes up against something far stranger than routine police work. With only a handful of catalog appearances, Maguire is a genuine deep-cut discovery, the kind of character that rewards collectors who love hunting through the rich, adventurous margins of nineties indie publishing.
