BPRD Dark Waters 01 (2003)

BRIAN AUGUSTYN/GUY DAVIS On sale July 16, FC, 32pg, (one-shot), $2.99 Abe Sapien and Roger the Homunculus find a small town in Massachusetts where the perfectly preserved bodies of three puritan witches have been uncovered in a drained pond. When the waters rise again, it spells doom for the town, and a colossal battle ensues between the mystical forces in the town, the local churches, and the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense. Brian Augustyn, who worked with Mignola on the seminal Gotham by Gaslight, and Guy Davis, artist of this spring’s Nevermen and Fantastic Four: Unstable Molecules, deliver a story as bizarre and thrilling as any Hellboy adventure you’ve read before.
