Thank you NetGalley and OniPress for the e-arc
So in this graphic novel, we follow a group of young adults who are queer and marginalised during the satanic panic in the USA, and especially in a very religious and conservative little town. So when a murder happened the authorities create a moral panic saying satanic did it. And the group of fitness are the perfect ones to blame.
I really really really like it. I love queer horror stories. Like horror is queer for me, and we need way more queer horror stories. The drawings are great, and the group of friends is superbe. Like we can see how much they care for each others, they always have each others back, and are here for each others. The horror was pretty good too. And I really wanted to know, how they would survive this.
The thing that bothered me was the pacing. It felt weird at some point, but not bad either… I just hope we will have a sequel because this ending????
