Comics & Graphic Novels Horror Occult & Supernatural Paperback E-book
A series of murders leads to an alchemical crime of horrible possession. The perfect family moves into a haunted house and invites all the neighbours to what will be their very last picnic. A card reader proves to a jaded detective that the moon is the key to solving not just his latest case, but all of them at the same time. A young man who has his dreams typed up and mailed out as curses come face to face with his unwanted inheritance from the Spell Syndicate.
Stories, pictures, clues, charms, and curses pile up on the desks of HEX CRIMES Detectives of Precinct 13 in this collection of dark delights. Supernatural crime is on the rise and budgets are on the decline as good cops face bad magic on the streets of the Midnight City.
Soaked in shadows, blood, and mystery, Witch Police Cases is a new illustrated archive of words and pictures by award-winning writer and illustrator GMB Chomichuk.
“There is nothing mundane about Chomichuk’s gritty noir landscape of Midnight City, where body hauntings and skin-stealing neighbours are the least of what’s lurking in the shadows. Only the Witch Police are standing between us and Chomichuk’s void, the Lynchian compulsion to inhabit his world both unrelenting and inevitable. I felt I was really there; I want to go back; I don’t want to look; I HAVE to look. Read at your own risk. Hold onto your badge. Let the night in.”
– S.M. Beiko, author of The Sleuth of Ferren City
“A deeply immersive experience. Chomichuk’s striking graphics create a cinematic journey, bringing vibrant characters to life and transporting you to another dimension.”
– Starkie Mak, author of Remembering Taiyaki
“A terrific collection of gritty, spellbinding (in both senses of the word) noir tales woven together with Chomichuk’s consistently excellent visual design . . . Highly recommended!”
– Elaine M. Will, creator of The Last Band On Earth
“Witch Police Cases is a fascinating hybrid work. Part novel, part graphic novel. Part police procedural, part urban fantasy. A truly unique reading experience.”
– Jeffrey Ellis, author of Crossroads
“Full of delightfully caustic, expertly-paced procedurals, with paranormal horrors that illuminate the darkness of human nature and systems of power.”
– Nyala Ali, author of Curb Angels
“A diet of black coffee and cigarettes:

high and sharp. Compelling.”
“Witch Police Cases is a quirky, visually fascinating, and idea-rich tale of hex murderers, hardboiled magical cops, and unnatural crimes. You’ll want to sink in and savour.”
– Kevin J. Anderson, author of the Dan Shamble, Zombie P.I. series, Dune: The Graphic Novel
“A classic noir vibe mixed with supernatural shenanigans and a punk edge. Witch Police Cases is hard to classify but tons of fun to read.”
– Silvia Moreno-Garcia, bestselling author of Mexican Gothic
