About this Collection

This collection brings together early installments of the supernatural legal comedy series Wolff & Byrd, Counselors of the Macabre, following attorneys Alanna Wolff and Jeff Byrd as they handle bizarre cases involving ghosts, monsters, and other uncanny clients. The volume includes appearances by figures like King Arthur and Merlin, blending courtroom drama with dark humor and occult themes.

In "Nine Points of the Law," Wolff & Byrd take on a case that blurs the line between guilt and myth, as client Prima Donner confronts the very entity she's spent years blaming—Dave, the Boogeyman. With Batton Lash writing, drawing, inking, and lettering the entire issue, and his own distinctive art defining the cover, this 1992 Sidebar Books tale explores the uneasy balance between supernatural aid and personal responsibility.
