The Question Returns to DC To Solve A Murder Mystery

The Question
DC investigator Renee Montoya will be seen soon back in action as The Question tries to investigate a murder mystery in the new Justice League Watchtower satellite headquarters - and everyone is a suspect, including Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and the other heroes of the League.

Written by up-and-comer Alex Segura (who is currently writing Marvel's Spider-Society title) with art by longtime DC artist Cian Tormey, who is fresh off his run on Alan Scott: "The Green Lantern", "The Question: All Along the Watchtower" puts Renee Montoya on the trail of a killer on a newly minted version of the Justice League's Watchtower satellite.

Segura compares the story's mystery to "Sherlock Holmes or Agatha Christie" in an interview with Polygon, who announced the six-issue limited series, likening it to "plot-driven novels that feature colorful characters and situations, often outside of the expected or mundane."

"But I’d also have to tip my hat to more modern PI novels, like the work of Walter Mosley, Laura Lippman, and George Pelecanos — stories about flawed protagonists in over their heads, trying to do the right thing," he continues.
