This was a fun take on the Jack B. Nimble nursery rhyme.  Lots of ninja illustrations and a lively rhyming prose.

Lord Cain became the head of the Hargreaves family upon his father's death.  But is his father really dead?  Why does death follow Lord Cain around?  And how are the two questions connected?
This series is a sequel to the Cain series which focuses on Cain's father.  I'm thinking that there might be a lot of back story in that series that would help to make this one make more sense.  It seems that this series focuses on various murders that Cain happens upon and that he then solves.  A lot of the murders are based upon nursery rhymes and classic books.  Some of the mysteries are better done than others.

Nursery Rhyme Comics edited by Chris Duffy - 119 pages

This is a collection of nursery rhymes illustrated by children's book illustrators, comic strip artists, manga artists, etc.  I found the collection interesting.  Most of them were illustrated in ways I wouldn't have thought of - different interpretations of the rhymes.  I especially liked Cyril Pedrosa's interpretation of "This Little Piggy".
