Still reeling from last issue's traumatic ending, our surviving heroes decide it's time to stand and fight. But are they prepared for the full fury of the Black-Eyed Children? From EISNER AWARD winner Joe Pruett and Szymon Kudranski, the artist of Daredevil/Punisher and Spawn.
Black-Eyed Kids #15 is a compelling and creepy read. The characters are all quite cool, and the black-eyed kids themselves are really unnerving. This is a great read for the horror reader, even if it is the final issue before a hiatus, which makes it completely understandable if you wait for the collected edition. That being said, I do recommend this comic. Give it a try. Read Full Review
While not the ending some may hope for, particularly since most reading it wouldn't want it to end at all, what we get here is an intriguing almost epilogue-like piece that sets up what can go next in this fairly open-ended series. I really dug pieces of the previous issue even without reading the bulk of what came before and it has me pretty intrigued with what Pruett might have done with it and the places Kudranski and Major could go in ratcheting up the tension and terror. Hopefully, the series in trade form continues to find an audience (and maybe even a nice deluxe season one hardcover?) that it can find a second shot at life down the line from this team. It definitely deserves attention just for being able to run as long as it has as a launch title from AfterShock and the faith put into it when we see publishers cancel a lot of books within the first few issues of sales.
