Ripperman

™ and © Chanting Monks Press

In this black and white graphic novel from Chanting Monks Press, a mysterious stranger arrives in the small town of Timeless, New York, just about the time that a series of child abductions begins. This, of course, arouses suspicion among the Timeless citizenry, but the amnesiac drifter—who takes on the name Joseph after being taken in by the local priest—is actually the antidote for what ails the town. He is vengeance incarnate; he is Ripperman. This action–thriller is something of a mish–mash and the art is a bit sketchy and inconsistent, but it is interesting in a B–grade horror movie sort of way.
