About the series
In the late 1980s, Comico published The Maze Agency, a cleverly plotted detective series by writer Mike W. Barr that paired puzzle-loving private eye Gabe Webb with true-crime writer Jennifer Mays. Over its seven-issue run, the book blended classic whodunit mystery with a touch of romance, brought to life by a rotating roster of artists including Adam Hughes, Greg Shoemaker, and Joe Staton. It stands out as a smart, character-driven homage to the detective genre, offering a refreshing alternative to caped superheroics.
