Bullet Review:

I have to return this tomorrow, but it wasn't hard to basically finish in a sitting.

It's been a bit since Erica cleaned up Archer's Peak and definitely much after the backstory of the previous volume. Now she's in New Mexico dealing with a different type of monster, one who left a single person, Gabi, alive. But meanwhile, Cecilia Slaughter is very much upset with how Erica left the order in the previous volumes and has sent another black mask, Cutter, from across the pond to deal with her.

Honestly, high points for something that I can read so quickly - and not just because it's simple or has a lot of pictures, but because it's engaging. I'm also impressed at how Tynion has deftly twisted the story to being more than just another "monster of the week".

Can't wait to see what comes next!
