Blackwater by Jeannette Arroyo, Ren Graham
4.0
This comic was described as Riverdale meets Stranger Things and I'd definitely agree. We get ghosts, high school drama, and a mysterious creature in the woods all in one! The comic starts off a little clunky with personalities and pacing, but about halfway through the story starts to take off. Tony is the high school's track superstar while Eli is just a quiet loner. The comic starts off like any other high school drama, until a hunting trip goes awry. This is just the first in (what will hopefully be a series) and I'm excited to see where it goes!
As a side note: It was also nice to see some disability representation with Tony's asthma and Eli's autoimmune disorder, and adds an extra dimension to the story and their characters.
Thank you so much to the publisher and Netgalley for the eARC in exchange for an honest review!
