Wolff & Byrd: Counselors of the Macabre #3
This is the first W and B issue to consist of several short stories. In 'The Zombies Strike at Midnight,' the owner of a novelty company goes into Wade's Haitian Hut, a bar near the courthouse, and complains about the fact that the zombies he employs to make his specialty voodoo dolls have gone on strike; the zombies of course are represented by W&B. In 'Court of Public Opinion,' Sodd is back as jury selection is under way. On the courtroom steps, the press abandon W and B and Sodd when they spot attorney Chase Hawkins and his client, supermodel Dawn Devine. In 'Mavis,' the secretary ventures out onto the street to find that the real world can be scarier than the firm's monster-filled offices. In 'Things That Go Bump In The Night,' it's just Jeff and Alanna alone in the office in the wee hours. Finally, in 'The Man Who Broke The Laws of Gravity (and Landed in Court),' W and B represent Lowell M. Rose, a consultant to Blackwood Museum who translates an ancient Tibetan scroll on levitation and finds himself up in the air; he sues when the museum fires him.

Wolff & Byrd: Counselors of the Macabre #2
In this second issue of the Wolff & Byrd/Supernatural Law series, Alanna Wolff and Jeff Byrd encounter the "Curse of the Werehouse!" Tom and Kim Curtis live in a house that becomes haunted every full moon. Tom's former boos sues when the house "assaults" him after he comes to dinner. Tom is a skeptic who pooh-poohs supernatural explanations for the haunted house. Kim calls Jeff Byrd because they used to work together in Chase Hawkins' office early in Jeff's career; he had a crush on her, which is rekindled during this case. Nosey neighbors report the strange goings-on at the Curtis house to the authorities, and it isn't too long before the Bureau of Firearms and Drugs (BFD) gets into the act-just in time for the next full moon.
