Weird Detective

In Weird Detective (2016–present, Dark Horse), writer Fred Van Lente and artist Guiu Vilanova spin a five-issue series that follows a New York City detective whose partner may be a cosmic entity from another dimension. Blending hardboiled crime fiction with Lovecraftian horror, the story explores the tension between mundane police work and the incomprehensible strangeness lurking just beneath the city’s surface. A compact, inventive take on the supernatural detective genre, it stands out for its tight focus and moody, otherworldly atmosphere.
