This edition wasn't the best collection graphic novel I've read. For the price I found it short. There is little character and plot development due to the short selection of issues. The premise was intriguing and I probably will continue with the series.

LOVED! Such a good comic/graphic novel (I honestly barely know the difference lmao). I’m so looking forward to reading the rest of the series. It’s very spooky and mysterious. This is a fast paced story about a small town where kids have begun going missing in odd and gruesome circumstances. There is currently one survivor who meets a mysterious young woman named Erica Slaughter (umm best last name ever) who says she can help stop these murders/abductions. I can tell this is the start of what will be an incredible adventure and a long and gruesome fight to survive and save the town and it’s kids.
I don’t really suggest this for kids under 12(ish), if not older.
*content warnings*
Murder, death of a child, abduction/missing children, gun violence, image of a dead animal, visual gore, mild cursing.
