    Default The Great British Bump-Off by John Allison and Max Sarin

    Come April, the crew at Dark Horse Comics is going to explore what would happen if you combined The Great British Bake-Off with Glass Onion or Die Another Day. ComicBook.com can exclusively reveal the publisher is gearing up to release The Great British Bump-Off, an "Agatha Christie-style mystery set in the world of English competitive baking."

    The four-issue limited series will makes its way into shops this April from the creative team of John Allison (Steeple), Max Sarin, and Sammy Borras. The first issue will also have a variant cover by breakout artist Dan Hipp.

    "I've made a lot of comics, I've read a lot of mysteries, and I've eaten a lot of cakes," Allison tells ComicBook.com. "You might say that I've been preparing for this series since I tasted my first fondant fancy. And as I'm working with Max and Sammy again, readers can be assured that the confection will look as good as it tastes."

    Looks like I may have been the only one on these boards to pick this up - the series was very good, if you enjoy either The Great British Bake off or murder mystery comedies I highly recommend.

    Thanks for creating a thread for this! I would've been none the wiser if I hadn't been browsing the threads here. I'm a huge fan of John Allison's work but this completely went under my radar. Definitely need to pick this up as soon as possible because it sounds like a blast!

    If you want to wait a few more months the trade is out in December I believe.
