5.0
I haven’t explored Monstress, so this is my first Liu title. There were some topics that were personally rather triggering, but that is for me to do a better job researching in the future.
I am definitely interested to pick up book two and see how this world continues to develop. Seeing as my jaw was mostly on the floor throughout with such intense images and twists in the story, I think I need closure at some point.
If you’re looking for a horror graphic novel that will leave you speechless, here you go.
Graphic: Blood, Gore, and Pandemic/Epidemic
