About the series
In this three-issue miniseries from Malibu Comics, Bruce Balfour and artist Paul Mendoza offer a speculative take on the infamous Whitechapel murders, weaving a dark historical thriller that pits a determined investigator against the shadowy figure of Jack the Ripper. Published in the late 1980s, the series stands out for its gritty, atmospheric approach to the unsolved mystery, grounding the horror in period detail rather than supernatural elements. Though brief, it remains a notable entry in the Ripper’s comic book lore for its focused, character-driven storytelling.
