The Grimoire was a comic book series published by Speakeasy Comics since the beginning of 2005. The acclaimed series, created by writer Sebastien Caisse and art studio Grafiksismik, had a creative team change right after the completion of its first story-arc with issue #6. A creative difference between the creators and publisher along with alleged problems over payments put the collaboration to a halt during the summer of 2005. Editor Chris Stone has since taken over the writing chores for the series. Of the new team and storyline, only issue #7 was published before Speakeasy closed on February 27, 2006.
[edit] Synopsis
"For all the enchantments, devices and creatures to be found in the cursed Grimoire, its most potent power might be this: whoever holds it will find his or her fate bound to it. Amandine should know - it has become a tragic family affair. The Grimoire is passed on to her from the hands of a mysterious masked stranger, and what starts out as a walk to a friend's house becomes the first steps of a life's adventure!"
