Warlock Holmes

Esta serie reimagina un mundo donde un detective mágicamente poderoso pero cómicamente inepto se enfrenta a misterios sobrenaturales en el Londres victoriano. Depende en gran medida de su brillante y capaz compañero para navegar tanto las amenazas arcanas como las proprieties sociales. Las historias mezclan el género de detectives clásico con fantasía oscura y humor, ofreciendo una visión fresca y a menudo hilarante de tropos familiares. Es una encantadora exploración de la deducción frente al poder demoníaco puro, todo envuelto en un paquete encantadoramente anacrónico.
