Forty years after disaster left Lower Manhattan submerged in thirty feet of water, children have begun disappearing below the surface. In this new series, Joe Golem hunts the terrifying creature that has been pulling children into the depths of the canals.
"The first issue has come out swinging, firing on all cylinders, making a strong case for itself as a best of the year candidate and laying the foundations on which classics are built. Do I recommend Joe Golem: Occult Detective? Absolutely. Without a shadow of a doubt. Yes. 5 out of 5." -Big Comic Page
Mignola and Golden have created a noir-esque detective book, fueled by alternate history and their usual twist of the macabre. Patric Reynolds provides the art of the gloomy water-soaked world, with a grainy style of pencils which suits the somewhat sunken dark world. As you would expect, Dave Stewart is on board with colors that practically scream horror and terror." -Comic Crusaders
"Patric Reynolds does some creepy work here. From the creepiness of the water, to flashback scenes giving us a little of Joe’s history, the art is wonderful and clean. Mignola and Golden have crafted a masterful story that I thoroughly enjoyed. 9 out of 10." -Comic Buzz
"Without a doubt, this was a great beginning and really has me guessing what’s coming up in the next few issues. The talent behind this series is at its best and I highly recommend you pick it up on your next trip to the comic store." -Geek Chic Elite
