CSI: Dying in the Gutters

A single-issue IDW comic from 2008, CSI: Dying in the Gutters is a one-shot crossover that sends the crime-scene investigators of the Las Vegas CSI team into the world of comic-book publishing. Written by series creator Anthony E. Zuiker, the story follows the team as they probe a murder at a comic convention, blending forensic procedure with a loving, insider's look at the industry. It's a niche but clever entry in the CSI franchise, notable for bringing its trademark scientific investigation into the colorful, often chaotic realm of fandom and comic-book culture.
