About the series
In this three-issue IDW miniseries from 2005, writer Steve Niles and artist Kelley Jones bring their signature gothic sensibility to a Cal McDonald mystery. The story follows the hard-boiled monster hunter as he investigates a bizarre supernatural phenomenon, blending horror and noir in a way that defines Niles's approach to the character. This collaboration between two masters of macabre comics is a standout entry in the Cal McDonald saga, showcasing Jones's grotesquely expressive art at its most unhinged.
