In this modern hardcover retelling of a classic commedia dell'arte legend of tomfoolery and hopeless, fawning love, creators Neil Gaiman (The Sandman, the Newbery Medal-winning The Graveyard Book) and John Bolton (Evil Dead) update the relationship of Harlequin and Columbine. A buffoon burdened with a brimming heart, Harlequin chases his sensible, oblivious Columbine around the city streets, having given his heart freely. Consumed with love, the impulsive clown sees his heart dragged about town, with a charming surprise to bend the tale in a modern direction. Gaiman's writing is poetic and as heartfelt as the subject matter. Bolton's art, a combination of digitally enhanced photorealism and dynamic painting, provides sensational depth with bright characters over fittingly muted backgrounds. Those who have spent Valentine's Day alone are aware that the cold February holiday can be hard to swallow. Gaiman and Bolton want you to know that all it takes is a steak knife, a fork, and a bottle of quality ketchup!

A fantasy writer much like Gaiman recalls a strange night in London. Prodded out by an old pal and his wife, he meets their bioecologist acquaintance, Miss Finch, at dinner and goes with them to an odd, animal-free circus. The audience moves from one chamber to another to see various spooky acts; scientifically skeptical Miss Finch is not amused. In the eighth room, Miss Finch is pulled away by a performer who says her most ardent wish will be granted in the ninth room.
