Family Tree has become a huge favorite in just two issues, which is amazing because it took me Greg Rucka's entire run on Wolverine to be quite as certain. It's the emotional weight, the unsettling imagery (that's also deeply touching), the exploration of family and fatherhood, and the way this tree-based mystery flourishes inch by painful and exciting inch. It doesn't so much grow on you as it bursts fully in bloom from your chest cavity. |

We also like horror because it makes the most of these huge, over-the-top, hyper bloody scenes to foster a level of intimacy.

There's some proper adventure to be had once we get to issue #5. And while I can't wait for it and, again, that better mean more stuff with Pigeon it's my hope that this book retains that smaller, quieter focus and accompanying ability to jab our souls with tiny blades. If it can, then this will be a book most of us will never recover from, no matter the available elixirs. |
