Planetary #3
In "Century," Warren Ellis and John Cassaday launch a dazzling, pulp-infused mystery set in the early 20th century, where young Elijah Snow follows a trail of forgotten legends. Among the enigmatic figures he uncovers are the Invisible Man, H.G. Wells, Frankenstein’s Monster, Robor, Carnacki, Sherlock Holmes, and Dracula—each a piece of a vanished conspiracy, now missing only two: the detective and the vampire. The story unfolds with the precision of a forgotten manuscript, its art by Cassaday and colors by Laura Martin bringing a haunting, cinematic weight to every page.
