Wolff & Byrd, Counselors of the Macabre #3

This issue consists of several short stories. In “The Zombies Strike at Midnight,” the owner of a novelty company is upset that the zombies he employs to make his specialty voodoo dolls have gone on strike; the zombies are of course represented by Wolff & Byrd. In “Court of Public Opinion,” jury selection is under way for the trial of Sodd, The Thing Called It. On the courtroom steps, the press abandon W&B and Sodd when they spot attorney Chase Hawkins and his client, supermodel Dawn DeVine. In “Mavis,” the intrepid W&B secretary ventures out onto the street to find that the real world can be scarier than the firm’s monster-filled offices. In “Things That Go Bump in the Night,” it’s just Jeff Byrd and Alanna Wolff alone in the office in the wee hours. Finally, in “The Man Who Broke the Laws of Gravity (and Landed in Court),” W&B represent Lowell M. Rose, a consultant to Blackwood Museum who translates an ancient Tibetan scroll on levitation and finds himself up in the air; he sues when the museum fires him. Bonus: This issue contains pinups by Melissa Uran and Alex Grecian.
