MacBryde & Grum by Steve Hoveke is a supernatural detective comic that mixes humor, horror, and buddy-dynamics in an off-beat fantasy world. The story follows Angus MacBryde, a private investigator with a mystical past, who decides to take on the strange and spooky as part of his PI business. His partner: Grum, a towering 7-foot-tall ogre from another dimension-wisecracking, labyrinthine in knowledge, and ready to help Angus navigate dangers both mundane and otherworldly.
Together, MacBryde and Grum dive into cases that bring ghosts, zombies, and supernatural chaos into everyday life. Their investigations pull them into murky realms where the veil between the living and the undead is thin, and the rules of reality seem negotiable. Think Sherlock meets Hellboy: clever deduction meets monsters in dark alleys, with just enough humor and brawl to keep things lively.
Underlying their monster-hunts is Angus's own history of "having seen dark things," a past that shadows his steps and influences how he handles the supernatural and the moral questions their cases pose. At its heart, MacBryde & Grum is a character-driven adventure about friendship, the weirdness of the unknown, and what it means to face your fears-both external and those buried inside.
