Billy the Kid, having faked his own death, is now free to roam America and start a new life, unhindered by his past crimes and criminal record. Free, that is, until someone discovers his true identity. Fineas Sproule and his band of traveling sideshow performers blackmail the Kid into joining their troupe. These performers are the rarest breed of human oddities and deforms: an alligator man, a dog-face boy, a wild man, a miniature boy, a psychic, a tattooed woman, and Sproule himself, also known as "The Human Spider." Billy begrudgingly agrees. Sproule, on top of everything else, is something of a treasure hunter. He and his band are set to travel to Europe to steal a priceless artifact from a mysterious scientist, a Dr. Victor Frankensteinwith Billy as their hired gun. _Billy the Kid's Old Timey Oddities_ is written by Eric Powell (writer/artist of the International Horror Guild Award winner and Eisner Award winner _The Goon_) and illustrated by Kyle Hotz (fan-favorite artist of _The Agency_ and _The Hood_). This series combines Hotz's quirky, macabre visuals and Powell's humorous, fast-paced storytelling into an offbeat, epic adventure full of interesting characters combining the unlikely genres of spaghetti western and Hammer horror.
