Praise for Adam Rose
– Publishers Weekly
"Through intricate and imaginative worldbuilding, Rose fashions a truly sinister crime and motive, while King’s art cannily juxtaposes the massive and tiny members of the cast, with rich, earthy color work across expansive panels and double-page spreads. Fans of the Fables and the Dresden Files series will get a kick out of this."
Patton Oswalt
“I love taking chances on random comics. This one, COROLLARY, from @sourcepointpress, REALLY paid off. It’s a science fiction/fantasy tale packed with action and VERY dark humor. Also, there are throwaway lines that contain concepts and ideas that other books would build their entire world around. …”
JC Chandor
director of Kraven the Hunter, and Oscar-nominated screenwriter
“Adam Rose’s Huge Detective delivers us into a shockingly original world where what we know isn’t real is depicted with such clarity and emotional honestly that it will grow from your imagination to become reality. Groundbreaking!”

Something HUGE is coming… When a string of murders and disappearances sweep the United States, a human and a giant with sizable detective skills are on the case.
After a race of giants emerged from deep sleep beneath the earth, a bloody conflict ensued in what became known as THE OMEGA EVENT. Eventually, a treaty is resolved and state of Brodbingnag is created, allowing humans and giants to co-exist harmoniously.

As the pair attempt to stop the criminal at large, they find themselves involved in a mystery bigger than either could imagine.

Corollary
In Corollary, everything comes in twos, even the people, and if your twin dies – so do you.
This is the way it’s always been, so when Captain Andromeda’s twin loses her life in a far-off military battle, and Captain Andromeda herself DOES NOT die, the universe demands answers. Answers that the Captain is willing to give … to the highest bidder, of course.
