Four times!

Hands down, the book that I've published that's gotten the most fan inquiries is JENNY FINN. It's also the lightning rod for the most anger. Damn, people, we're doin' the best we can! Word!

Please spread to the Mignola fans that It Is Done, baby!

Why anger? I'm out of the loop.

The original series was a 4 issue mini from ONI PRESS, but it was canceled after only two issues saw print in 1999.

Mignola fans wanna see their books, so some fans get a bit antsy and impatient to see the book on the rack.

I figured it was gone forever after the Oni deal. So folks should be nothing but happy that it was revived at all. Good work. :D

The preview you gave me during SDCC had me quite impatient for the final result. I'm dying to get my hands on the end to this very interesting Mignola piece.

I've never read Jenny Finn but I'm thinking about picking it up. What is it about (without total spoilers)?

Victorian England. Craaaazy things are happening, involving ocean creatures, Jack the Ripper, and a mysterious, oddly captivating girl named Jenny Finn.

Thanks for the heads up, Ross! I'll keep my eyes peeled for it. :)

Thanks, Ross! I can't believe I'm actually holding this in my hands. I'd LONG since given up hope of ever seeing the conclusion of Jenny Finn in print. Even when you guys republished the first two issues with promises of the last, I figured something would happen and it would fall through. The book seemed cursed. But you've done it! Here it is. Now I just need to re-read the first part before I can actually read it, since my memory's a little fuzzy on the plot after all these years...

Well, I picked up the reprint of the first two issues. Damn good and just plain weird (ina good way).

Now I have piles of comics to read so Messiah kinda got mixed up in the shuffle. Though I ended up finally reading it in a somewhat apropriate setting. I was seasick on board a research vessel and had it in the stack of comics I brought. So I read it and enjoyed the hell out of it as creepy as it was. It certianly yet oddly lived up to its title. Man, that was some crazy tale.

I'd have to say that these books (this book?) is the most effectively creepy and disturbing thing I think Mignola has ever written, or has been a part of, that I've read.
