Acerca de este libro

Sir Charles Baskerville is found dead and Sherlock Holmes is called upon to protect his heir, Sir Henry Baskerville.

Narrating the story, Holmes’s assistant Dr. Watson is sent to Dartmoor to investigate the unsettling tale of the Hound of the Baskervilles. This legend warns the descendants of the Baskerville family never to venture out on the moors that surround their ancestral home, or they will meet the beast that lurks in the shadows. 
 
Though the story may seem unbelievable, a man is dead and footprints of a giant hound are found nearby. Sherlock and Dr. Watson agree to dig deeper into the truth of the matter and will discover that nothing is quite as it seems.  

The most famous of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes stories, The Hound of the Baskervilles was serialized in The Strand Magazine in 1901-02 and soon published to book form in 1902. Wildly popular, this novel has been adapted for film numerous times, starting with a silent German production in 1914. 

Información de la editorial

After the success of their "Illustrated Classics" version of "The Picture of Dorian Gray," Ian Edginton and I.N.J. Culbard have teamed up again to create a visually compelling graphic novel adaptation of Arthur Conan Doyle's masterpiece. And the superb writing and beautiful art takes Conan Doyle's supernatural tale to new heights.All the elements are here for a thrilling tale: A gnarled walking stick, missing boot, neglected family portrait, convicted killer on the loose, and the ancestral curse of a phantom hound. The great detective himself, Sherlock Holmes--with the help of Dr. Watson has his work cut out for him in a dramatic mystery that will keep readers guessing until the very end.

Acerca del autor

I. N. J. Culbard is an artist and writer. In 2006, he surpassed thousands of other writers and had his work published in Dark Horse Comics' New Recruits anthology. He has also appeared in the "Judge Dredd Megazine." Culbard is an acclaimed animation director with considerable experience in directing commercials, developing projects for television, and producing and directing short films. This is his second full-length graphic novel as an artist, having collaborated on "The Picture of Dorian Gray" with Ian Edginton. Ian Edginton, one of Britain's best-known writers, has had a tremendous impact on the world of comics. In his illustrious career he has worked for Lucasfilm, Paramount Pictures, and 20th Century Fox to adapt "Star Wars," "Star Trek," "Alien," "Predator" and "Terminator "properties, as well as with the H.G. Wells estate to adapt "War of the Worlds" for Dark Horse. He owes his success to good collaborations with other artists from the industry, most famously D'Israeli ("Scarlet Traces") and Steve Yeowell ("The Red Seas"). He recently adapted Edgar Allan Poe's "The Murders in the Rue Morgue" (illustrated by D'Israeli) for SelfMadeHero's graphic anthology "Nevermore." In 2007, his graphic novel "Scarlet Traces: The Great Game" was nominated for Best Limited Series and Best Writer at the prestigious Eisner Awards.
