Nifty comic set during Harlem Renaissance with a family of monster hunters. I like the characters and the setting and want to see what happens next. Essays at back of book are also some excellent analysis and additional explanation.

I enjoyed the themes, but the art and story took some time to get into.

YES. Read this book.

The Sangerye family "purifies" Jinoo, people who have so much hate in their hearts that they become infected and turn into monsters. But, the Inzondo start to appear and these "monsters" are much more fierce and unknown to the Sangerye. Inzondo are beings that are created by a soul that has been "ravaged by great sorrow and pain".

Just-- please read this. It's an incredible commentary on racism and the effects of racism. The art is faaaaaantastic and the story will snatch you right up. I am waiting (anxiously) for the next installment.
