Grandville (SIGNED with DRAWING!) (Signed)

In Grandville, the first volume in the series, Talbot brings us a steam punk masterpiece. It tells the story of detective Inspector LeBrock of Scotland Yard as he stalks a gang of murderers through the heart of Belle-Époque Paris.

In this alternative reality France is the major world power and its capital throngs with steam-driven hansom cabs, automatons and flying machines. The characters are mostly animals, though there is an underclass of humans, often referred to as 'dough faces'.

Visually stunning, Grandville is a fantastical and audacious rollercoaster ride that will add to Talbot's reputation as one of the best graphic novelists in the world.

This volume is signed and features an inscription and drawing of Detective Inspector Lebrock by Bryan Talbot.
