Following three very mysterious teasers, MTV Geek has now unveiled The Private Eye; a new creator owned series from Brian K. Vaughan (Saga) and Marcos Martin (Amazing Spider-Man). The premise of the series is as follows: "Set in a future where privacy is considered a sacred right and everyone has a secret identity, The Private Eye is a serialized sci-fi detective story for mature readers." However, it will not be available in print and is instead now available to download from www.PanelSyndicate.com. You can get it for free or help contribute towards making future issues a reality.
