If mayhem could be refined, its architect would be Sebastian O. He can outwit any rival, outfight any foe and outdress any other wilting, poetical fop who has a talent for tasteful and decorous two-fisted action. Set in an alternate London of the 1890s where computer technology has been perfected and virtual reality is the plaything of Decadents and dandies, SEBASTIAN O is not only a 3-issue, action-packed romp through mean streets where bon mots fly like teflon-coated bullets, but also a wry commentary on a perverse, self-deceiving society brought to you by Grant Morrison and Steve Yeowell. The hero of the piece is Sebastian O, a quick-talking Oscar Wildean dandy and an expert escapologist, who has somehow learned a secret that threatens the existence of a very important, very exclusive Club - enough that they have him incarcerated in Bedlam asylum. If only he could remember what the secret is. In hot pursuit of the cads that locked him away, Sebastian tussles with assassins and rogues, none of whom could ever triumph because none are as exquisitely dressed as he. Cover by Yeowell. Suggested for Mature Readers. New Format. Cover price $1.95.
