The original Blacksad graphic novel, Somewhere Within the Shadows, will soon be available in a new hardcover edition from Dark Horse Comics.
Juan DÃaz Canales and Juanjo Guarnido’s first anthropomorphic animal noir thriller introduces the feline detective to the world in their version of 1950s.
Somewhere Within the Shadows concerns the murder of private investigator John Blacksad’s former lover and the tangled web that he soon discovers involving organized crime and high-ranking political figures.
Dark Horse Comics released Somewhere Within the Shadows as part of their first Blacksad hardcover collection in 2010.
Dark Horse plans to release the second and third Blacksad story arcs, Arctic Nation and Red Soul (which were also included in the first Dark Horse collection from 2010), after the release of Somewhere Within the Shadows.
