1st printing. Based on the Stories by Robert Louis Stevenson. Art and cover by Robert Smith. "I am slowly losing hold of my original better self." Dr. Jekyll is upstanding gentleman, a philanthropist, and well-respected member of society. So why is he linked to the young Mr. Hyde, an unpleasant man of dubious morals and hideous appearance? That is precisely what Jekyll's lawyer, Mr. Utterson, sets out to discover. Utteson's enquiries lead him deep into the foggy streets of London, and before he knows it he is on the hunt for a murderer. But all is not quite what it seems, and he begins to suspect that much darker forces are at play... This murky tale of human nature's capacity for evil is given a new lease of life by Robert Smith's vivid illustrations in this graphic adaptation of Stevenson's iconic horror novella. Also included int he short story "The Body Snatchers," a gruesome tale of grave-robbery and deception based on the real-life exploits of the infamous Burke and Hare.
