From the celebrated creators behind Starman and Super Friends comes this magical comics tale of crime and theft in the world of hospitality.
Welcome to the Maynard! A grand hotel full of luxury and style…but where the guests are all wizards, witches and mythical creatures!
Enter a world of magic, mystery, thrills and fun.
Join Philippa (Pip) Dale as she begins her new job as a bellhop (and trainee house detective) at the exclusive Maynard Hotel for Wizards (and folks of a magical ilk). This opulent, amazing hotel exists right under the noses of everyday San Francisco, where real magicians, witches, mystical characters and fantastic creatures all come to stay.
However, Pip’s working days aren’t merely full of amazing sights and magical experiences, they come with thrills and dangers too. She must try to catch a magical hotel thief, although their strange choice of thefts suggests that murder is the ultimate goal. Can Pip solve the mystery of who the thief’s target is in time to save the intended victim? And at the same time, she must go about her other duties at the hotel almost all of which involve spells, enchantment, and drama of one kind or another.
Helping her are many fun and funny hotel employees, all of them with magic running through their veins too. The Maynard is a unique, special hotel where the strange and mystical come to stay. It truly a place like no other, especially now Pip is on the case to liven things up even more.
So check in, sit back and enjoy the fun. Welcome to the Maynard!
