Hello Mr Gaiman, I'm watching Dead Boy Detectives and I'm enjoying it very much. But I've a grammar dilemma about the title, since English is not my first language.

Shouldn't it be "Dead Boys Detectives" ?

Thank you!

Think of “Dead boy” as a descriptive phrase, like “tall giraffe” or “Clever Lesbian”. The Clever Lesbian Detective Agency will send clever lesbians to investigate crimes, and the tall giraffe detective agency will send tall giraffes to your house to investigate mysteries.
