There were some interesting ideas and themes although I found the characters hard to follow.

Wow...just...wow! This comic was amazing and I loved it and they better come out with the second volume of it soon!
In a border town in the desert, there are women and girls going missing. Officer Frank Coffey is transferred from a city and he is trying to figure out where these women and girls are going. In his tracking, he runs into Red, a girl with a katana and a mission. Red's mission is to kill the werewolves, these beasts that are picking off the missing girls one by one. As Frank and Red try to work together to figure out where the werewolves are coming from, and why they are going only after the girls and women.
I'll say this, this comic covers sensitive and mature material. It covers material that may seem eye-opening to some but may feel like common knowledge to others. And for me, the more I read, the more it felt like common knowledge what this was hinting and alluding to. To me, that's what so amazing about this comic. It gave me a new lens to view old knowledge and still enjoy the story. I loved hearing about another way werewolves came to be in the world, I loved the artwork of this comic, I loved just about everything about it. I need the second volume to find out what happens next. I hope it comes out soon.

This was definitely unique and enjoyable. It's not necessarily a series that I would buy the issues of, but it's a series that I would like to continue if given the chance.
Interesting blend of folklore and the ugly truth of boarder crossing.

Honestly. I might pick this back up but I think comics might just not be for me anymore

Drawing on immigration, violence against women, and police corruption, this comic is dark, so beautiful, and full of fierce women. Like most comics, it’s not perfect, but it’s pretty dang cool.

I think it was going for a "representation" angle, but it came across as borderline racist tbh.
Clearly written by an Anglo (no one in Spanish ends sentences with words like "jodido") the whole thing was supposed to tackle on... rape culture through "Marvel" like superheroes? Really? Such a dramatic real life struggle, and you go and make... what the fuck is this, lmao.
Anyway...awful writing, poor action drowned in dialogue, tone-deaf, yada yada yada, you get the point, it sucks.
