Bibliophilia: Victorian Undead by Ian Edginton

Victorian Undead: Sherlock Holmes vs Zombies! – Ian Edginton
Victorian Undead: Sherlock Holmes vs Dracula – Ian Edginton

Completely over the top, but rollicking good fun. And the art by Davide Fabbri is absolutely fantastic! Bit of a steam-punkish/League of Extraordinary Gentleman feel to both of these. Of course, being the detail geek I am, I found the inclusion of tanks and submachine guns in stories set in about 1875 a bit annoying. The inclusion of zombies and vampires I could overlook, but those two points I had trouble with. Go figure.
