Warning: The title is not lying…
This just may be one of the best comic series I have ever read. I could not put it down and I was so excited to learn Netflix is adapting it into a show. I got my husband to read it and he stayed up late reading issues #1 - #20. Now we are both die hard fans and have bought many alt covers and had them graded. So much care has been put into this series and as you read it, you can instantly imagine it as a show along with where season 1 could end and season 2 could pick up. Erica Slaughter is a dry witted badass with so many layers that make you absolutely love and root for her. If you love horror and comics, you will love this!
