In this One-Shot from Caliber Comics, Warren Ellis adapts one of the classic Sherlock Holmes stories to the comic book format. It was originally published in 1924 under the name "The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire".
This black and white comic is adapted from the Sherlock Holmes short story, "The Adventure Of The Sussex Vampire" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
In the story, Holmes is visited by a man who believes his wife is sucking the blood from their baby son. Is all as it seems? Holmes and Watson travel to the man's home in Sussex to investigate the case of "The Sussex Vampire".

Thanks Rick. Another one to add to the collection.

Did you know that the only "Michael" in the entire Canon is in SUSS? And he's a "walker" of sorts ... being a stable-hand, he is certainly responsible for "walking out" the horses. :>)
Invite him to 1895 and he can be a walker.
