Clue: Candlestick

Clue: Candlestick, a 2019 three-issue miniseries from IDW, reimagines the classic board game with a fresh, stylish murder mystery. Written and drawn by Dash Shaw, the story follows a new cast of suspects at a remote mansion, where the iconic candlestick becomes a weapon in a tense, closed-room whodunit. Shaw’s distinctive, atmospheric art brings a modern, noir-tinged energy to the familiar Clue formula. It matters as a clever, creator-driven take on a beloved property, proving a simple game can yield a compelling comic.
