Tropical Blues

New Guinea, 1927. A detective from San Francisco arrives in the sweltering tropics on a seemingly simple job: find Mike Somerset III, a young heir who has vanished in the South Pacific. But in the dense jungles and remote islands of Melanesia, nothing is simple — and the search quickly becomes a journey into the heart of darkness. Inspired by the real-life disappearance of Michael Rockefeller and paying tribute to Hugo Pratt's maritime adventures and Guido Nolitta's Mister No, Tropical Blues is a three-issue tale of obsession, danger, and the mysteries that hide in the world's last uncharted places.
