Description
The mechano-samurai Toshiro travels a clockwork Victorian world, battling horrors too dark for mankind. With his mysterious partner, the world famous adventurer Quicksilver Bob, Toshiro must face the greatest peril the world has ever seen: the soul-stealing jellyfish from beyond. From the writer of Dream Thief (Dark Horse, forthcoming March 2014) comes a genre-mashing adventure of gargantuan proportions, where tanks take on katanas! It's a dizzying vision backed up with beautifully bloody artwork and a compelling story.
