About Grim Death and Bill the Electrocuted Criminal
In this quirky, supernatural investigative thriller from acclaimed artist Mike Mignola (Hellboy) and NYT bestselling author Thomas E. Sniegoski, Bentley Hawthorne lives a solitary and mysterious life in an old mansion with his wry, long-suffering butler Pym. Pym and Bentley's childhood friend and spitfire journalist Gwendolyn Marks don't understand why Bentley insists on a path of isolation, but that's because they don't know his secret: The gentle-seeming Bentley is actually a chosen servant of Death tasked with avenging victims who have been killed before their time. Bentley has worked alone until now. However, he’ll need their help when Death's messenger, a raven named Roderick, charges Bentley with his strangest and most dangerous investigation yet.
Starring Cory Michael Smith (Bentley Hawthorne), Merritt Wever (Gwendolyn Marks), Željko Ivanek (Pym), John Carroll Lynch (Roderick), Craig Tate (Bill), William Fichtner (Professor Romulus), André de Shields (Dr. Nocturne), and Stephen Tobolowsky (Warden Delocroix)
