Because this was such a fast read and I tried not to focus too much on the gore, I'm shockingly looking forward to reading the rest of these.

Warning: The title is not lying…

This just may be one of the best comic series I have ever read. I could not put it down and I was so excited to learn Netflix is adapting it into a show. I got my husband to read it and he stayed up late reading issues #1 - #20. Now we are both die hard fans and have bought many alt covers and had them graded. So much care has been put into this series and as you read it, you can instantly imagine it as a show along with where season 1 could end and season 2 could pick up. Erica Slaughter is a dry witted badass with so many layers that make you absolutely love and root for her. If you love horror and comics, you will love this!

 This was the Eisner award winner for best new series in 2020 and it deserves it. This is a horror, graphic novel about a town where children are missing or showing up as bloody body parts. Something or someone has devoured them and left the entrails. One kid survived, and now everyone thinks he’s to blame. James used to have nightmares and would tell his friends about them until his life became a nightmare. Erica Slaughter just pulled into town. She is all pissed off and grumpy business. She knows what’s going on in town and she is there to bring it down. This book was a horrifically good time. But volume two and three will be critical as there are so many unanswered questions. Questions like what is up with the octopus? Who all those people sitting around the table with a glint in the light? Will James survive? And what the hell will Tommy do now that he can “see”. I’m telling you right now if you read this book, have book 2 and three on hold, the wait is going to kill me.
