Portland, Wu is a graphic novel based on the television series, and is a spinoff of the Grimm comic book series. It includes two full stories: "Portland, Wu," and "Renard's Reckoning." It was published in August 2014 by Dynamite Comics and distributed on August 20, 2014 by Diamond. Despite having two stories, the volume's copyright page indicates the publication is "Grimm Portland, Wu, volume 1", and the cover makes no mention of "Renard's Reckoning."
Plot Synopsis
Portland, Wu: A missing girl. A femme fatale. A dark family secret. What starts as an unofficial investigation into his neighbor's disappearance drags Sgt. Wu deep into a world of Wesen intrigue. In the vein of classic film noir tales, Wu unravels a case that could not only cost him his job, but his life.
Renard's Reckoning: Portland. A city full of natural beauty and unnatural danger. A dark rose built on a secret foundation of Wessen [sic] corruption...but not any more [sic]. Not if rookie Police Officer Sean Renard has anything to say about it! Witness the rise of Captain Renard, as he wrestles for control with a Wesen crime boss in the past, and the personal sacrifices he must make in the present to maintain control of his city.
