“An Austrian robotics expert is dead. Detective Foster J. Lockidge is brought in by a mysterious client for what he thinks is a straightforward protection job. The client dies before Foster even meets him. Not one to hand back a fee, Foster takes to the 1930s New York streets to find the killers. The trail involves Nazis, shady US military types, dangerous dames, and revelations that could rock the wider world, all while the city tenses ahead of a meeting of the Nazi-sympathising American Bund.”

Jordan Thomas said, “Chris and I are constantly planning what our next projects together will be and when I saw Chris post a set of gorgeous character designs with a 1930s vibe a year or so back I knew we had to do something in that era. From there I pulled in my love of classic noir movies and our mutual adoration for all things Mike Mignola and Electric Smoke was born. I truly believe this is our best work so far and the art Chris is doing for the series is both stunning and unlike anything else in comics right now. I think people are going to fall in love with the world and be thrilled by the twists and turns in the story.” Chris Matthews added, “Jordan smashes another one out the park. A really fun, original take on a classic noir detective story that I’m proud to be a part of.”
