I really love the body horror in this comic. There's a lot of danger in the story with the right balance of shocking violence and taut emotional beats. I have a lot of empathy for the main character too.

If anything, this comics arc is a little short.  By the time the story has truly gotten going, it's over. It's overreliant on the volume 2.  I'm going to read that next, though, so hopefully that will balance out.
