One of the most thought provoking and talked-about novels of the 19th century, The Island of Dr. Moreau challenged morals, science and identity.

“David, Sara and I are all incredibly excited to seeThe Army of Dr. Moreau find a home with IDW,” said series artist Carl Sciacchitano. “Monkeybrain has been wonderful for us, and we can’t wait for this book to reach an audience who either missed the series on Comixology, or just prefers to read their comics the old fashioned way.  And if you read it the first time around, rest assured that the print version has some new content thrown in as well!”
 
Written by award-winning journalist, filmmaker and author, David F. Walker (Shaft) and featuring the art ofCarl Sciacchitano, the 7-issue series will join the previous Monkeybrain titles Amelia Cole, Edison Rex,Skybreaker, Artful Daggers, Knuckleheads, Red Light Properties and Mask Of The Red Panda in print!
 
Powers co-creator Michael Avon Oeming raved “The Army of Dr. Moreau is a fun and intriguing look at genetic manipulation, brilliantly brought to life by David’s writing and Carl’s art.  Highly recommended!”
