Unconventional pulp hero Lobster Johnson keeps the streets of New York clean in this comics collection of his earliest supernatural, slick, and surprising misadventures.

After years of captivating fans' imaginations from the pages of Hellboy and B.P.R.D., the pulp-style adventures of Lobster Johnson took the limelight in their own series of comics adventures. From gangsters to Nazis to an army of monkeys, the Lobster faces classic foes in strange new ways.

His adventures are now collected for the first time in a paperback omnibus edition, collecting trade volumes The Burning Hand, Satan Smells a Rat, and Get the Lobster and the short story "Lobster Johnson: The Empty Chair" featuring writing by Mike Mignola, John Arcudi and Tonci Zonjic with art by Zonjic, Joe Querido, Sebastián Fiumara, and more!
Praise for Lobster Johnson:

“Quite an achievement in a field filled with promises of exciting pulp-ish adventures that mostly fail to deliver, or try and pretend they have something to say that doesn’t involved stylized violence and fashionable suits. The Lobster feels like the genuine article, something that could be ripped from the pages of Police Comics in the 1940s.”—The Comics Journal
