Charlie Adlard and Robbie Morrison team for the graphic novel Heretic this October

Artist Charlie Adlard teams up with award-winning crime novelist Robbie Morrison for the forthcoming graphic novel, Heretic. This standalone black-and-white story can perhaps best be described as Sherlock Holmes meets The Name of the Rose and is set to hit shelves this October from Image Comics.

Belgium, 1529: The city of Antwerp is ravaged by a macabre series of killings. Forced to investigate by the all-powerful Inquisition, knight, doctor, lawyer and reputed Occultist Cornelius Agrippa and his young pupil Johan Weyer are plunged into a maelstrom of murder, madness and magic.

Agrippa was a contradictory and controversial 16th century Renaissance polymath, a soldier and a scholar whose books of occult philosophy were widely influential and added impetus to the study of magic. The first man to successfully defend a woman accused of witchcraft, he was condemned as heretical by the Inquisition, and also features as an influence on Victor Frankenstein in Mary Shelley’s classic novel. Heretic weaves this real-life character into a tapestry of thriller intrigue to create a pulse-pounding historical fiction story perfect for fans of Elizabeth Kostova’s The Historian and The Alienist.

Heretic (ISBN: 9781534340466) will be available at local comic book shops on Wednesday, October 16 and independent bookstores, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, Indigo, and Waterstones on Tuesday, October 29.
