I'm quite excited about this, I just finished the first volume and it was AMAZING! Beautiful artwork, fantastic characters, awesome plot. I thought the fantasy attributes were a little strange in the original, but from what I hear those will be gone in this revival of the series. Yay! I also have to admit that I L-O-V-E mystery graphic novels.
Ruse: The Victorian Guide to Murder comes out Oct. 5.

I haven't heard of this either. Actually, I've never even read a graphic novel before (shame on me!) but I hope to change that this month with the Vampire Academy one. Anyway this sounds good! And who doesn't love a juicy mystery? :D
