Dirk Gently, created by Douglas Adams and shortly to be the star of his own television series from BBC America,returns to comics inThe Salmon of Doubt, brought to you by executive producers of the show Arvind Ethan David and Max Landis. Plagued by nightmares about a childhood he never had, Dirk returns to Cambridge University to seek the advice of his former tutor, the time-traveling Professor Reg Chronotis.There he discovers that a holistic detective can have more than one past, and his adventures have only just begun... Featuringfavoritecharacters from the original books as well as the cast from the TV series, including Samuel Barnett and Elijah Wood.
"Never has there been a more seamless merging of a TV show and a title that was being published before the show started airing. Dirk doesnt look like Samuel Barnett, who plays Dirk on the show, but rather than start over and discard past issues altogether,Salmon of Doubtincorporates comics Dirk and his assistant, Sally with TV Dirk and his assistant, Todd (played on the show by Elijah Wood)."
