geekwayne 's review for:

The Low, Low Woods by Carmen Maria Machado
4.0

'The Low, Low Woods' by Carmen Maria Machado with art by DaNi is a horror graphic novel from Hill House Comics, a new imprint from Joe Hill under DC Comics.

Shudder-To-Think is a coal town in Pennsylvania with a dark secret. Best friends El and Olivia wake up in a theater with a gap of missing time, and wonder what is going on. Along with the weird rabbits around town there is a woman with a deer head. There are also skinless men. There hunt will lead them to the town witch and a secret that some would rather keep unknown.

There is a lot to like in this story. It's got the feel of a novel, but the flow of a graphic novel. The characters are unique as is the setting. It all feels like pretty rich world building for only six issues of a comic book series. The covers are great and extra ones are included. I was less enamored with the story art, but it serves it's purpose.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from DC Entertainment and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
