Publisher's summary

It’s 1933. Reporter Cynthia Tynan finds herself drawn into the mystery surrounding the disappearance of several prominent New Yorkers and seeks the aid of the Lobster…but that grim vigilante is investigating break-ins and thefts in a number of science research labs in the city. The two cases quickly intertwine, bringing the Lobster and his associates into contact with German spies, religious lunatics, and monstrously transformed people who have been subjected to hideous experimentation. The Lobster will soon learn what can make a man into a monster! Introducing Doctor Thorne—but will he be hero, or villain?

Written exclusively for GraphicAudio and produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects and cinematic music!

Not what I expected.

Overall it's okay, I listen at work and I work in a metal shop so it's loud. I didn't like that the story was told from the female reporters point of view. the story is a decent homage to detective fiction of the time period in which it's set. repetitive introduction of contemporary politics took me out of the story and made me say to myself, not again. I probably wont buy another loberster Johnson story.

Fun listen.

The performances here are really great, and this is an overall fun listen. Unfortunately, I had very recently finished reading the Lobster Johnson novel, The Satan Factory, and this story is uncannily similar. So, what would have been an otherwise enjoyable story just seemed a little repetitive. I recognize that there’s only so much you can do with the time and place of this Hellboy-related vigilante, but this one just seems too much like the Lobster tales that have come before it.

not told from the hero's POV

this story is lackluster, and is a slow burn not told from the hero's point of view or even sidekicks but from a female character

I want NY money back!

The message behind this story was so forced, and the only thing the writer actually cared about. A few fight scenes around boring ham-fisted dialogue. I get it; the bad guys didn't like black people, enough already. This was wat ttoo long to keep reminding us of thst over and over and over and over and over agsin.
