I enjoyed this graphic novel. The flow was good, graphics were smooth not like some graphic novels where the colour palette can be overwhelming. Will continue with the series.

The premise is cool. I love a wide range of character design, and the grims were all great. The story is a run of the mill heroes journey, nothing groundbreaking. The art is fantastic! I loved that title page we get after the "cold open".

I'm happy the associate at the comic book store suggested this to me. I like the plot and artstyle, in need of Volume 2 to see how much trouble Jessica is in. Seemed like her boss was going to pop a nerve at the end. ^_^;

This one was a bit of a surprise. I really enjoyed the storyline. Recycled a bit and full of cliche but it was a good set up volume. I would definitely pick up volume 2.

The art is awesome. It goes from this gritty style to an ultra sharp style with great use of color and lighting. I highly recommend this one.

I really enjoyed this, it’s tender, multilayered and fast paced. I’m looking forward to seeing how Jessica Harrows story will develop and appreciate that GRIM didn’t feel rushed.

I’d like to this this story as a book because there are so many elements to flesh out.

A fun, gothic story about death, the reaper, demons and end of times.
