The Handcuff King - graphic novel about Harry Houdini

by Jason Lutes & Nick Bertozzi

expected Spring '07 from Hyperion/CCS

Wendy Wasman has reviewed it for Jewish Book World.

There are preview panels up at http://www.nickbertozzi.com/comics/houdini/houdini.htm

One of the panels has a policeman talking about the rumor that Houdini has horns on his head because he's a Jew and is in league with the Devil. In a later panel, Houdini responds by saying that when the cop checks his hair for lockpicks he should be able to feel the horns for himself.
