Kris Bertin's stories are a revelation, a triumph—each stamped with the mark of a new and rising genius." —David Adams Richards The Case of the Missing Men is the first part of an ongoing mystery thriller set in the peculiar East Coast village of Hobtown. It follows a group of young teens, known as The Teen Detective Club, who investigate their town's strange happenings. Their routine of solving missing pet cases and shed fires is disrupted when globetrotter Sam Finch arrives and recruits them for their first real case—the search for his missing father. This leads them into a chilling world filled with rural secret societies, bizarre folk mythology, subterranean lairs, and an occultist capable of transforming men into dogs. The narrative is a blend of humor, intrigue, eeriness, and charm, beautifully illustrated in a style reminiscent of classic children's pulp series like Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys. Kris Bertin and Alexander Forbes, childhood friends with distinct artistic backgrounds, have come together to create this comic book. Forbes is an artist and graduate of the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, while Bertin is known for his short story collection Bad Things Happen. Both hail from Lincoln, New Brunswick, and currently reside in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
