UPDATE: Why am I not surprised? A “Devonton” Abbey comic

I just found this on GoComics.com: Agent Gates and the Secret Adventures of Devonton Abbey.

From the website: Presenting a parody spin on the characters we know and love from the hit show Downton Abbey, this story is told through the eyes of the downstairs staff—especially one secretly rugged valet John Gates, who turns out to be an undercover spy for Her Royal Majesty’s British Secret Intelligence Agency (the SIS). Gates and several other Devonton staffers are part of a nationwide top-secret division of operatives scattered throughout country estates, all supervised by (who else?) the Dowager Countess, a close personal friend of Queen Victoria herself. An added perk: there’s steampunk involved.

And that’s all I know at this point.

UPDATE: Apparently the comics are available for sale: http://astore.amazon.com/ucomicscom/detail/1449434347

You can also see a preview here.

So here’s something else to grumble about or chuckle at:
