Jazz Age - Chronicles, Volume One (Paperback)

Jazz Age, the comic was nominated for an Ignatz Award in the category "Outstanding Online Comic" in 2003 and named one of the best webcomics of 2004 by The Webcomics Examiner. Prior to the webcomic, Jazz Age Chronicles was released in printed format from EF Graphics and Caliber Comics. It's Boston in the 1920s. Famed Harvard archaeologist Clifton Jennings, international adventurer and discoverer of ancient treasures, has some adventures no one knows about. He's a member of a Secret Society, one that guards against supernatural threats and unscrupulous meddlers in the black arts. One such meddler is the Baroness Marlene Von Treska, with whom Jennings shares a history. In The Case of the Beguiling Baroness, when she is rumored to be in town, Jennings and his Secret Society hire seedy private eye Ace Mifflin to keep tabs on her whereabouts. And that's when their troubles really begin... In Vote Early & Often, the detective finds himself unwittingly in the spotlight when he publicly accuses the leading candidate for district attorney of a murder his friend is on trial for Will he get his friend out of jail, or just put himself in? Chronicles, Volume One follows the first adventures of Jennings and Ace and their adventure-seeking gang as they go up against threats both earthly and supernatural. This is the first of a two-volume set that reprints the entire original print run of Jazz Age Chronicles from the late 1980s and early '90s.
