A review by octavia_cade
Road of Bones by Rich Douek

4.0

I read and reviewed each of the comics collected here separately, so this is basically for my own records. The individual comics all got four stars from me, so it was a no-brainer what the collection would receive. This was a very, very enjoyable book. The combination of historical horror with creature horror, and how both could contribute to dehumanisation and madness, was really effective. Furthermore, the art was excellent. I wouldn't call it beautiful, exactly, but with its limited range of colours and bleak aesthetic it was certainly striking, and matched perfectly with the story.
