Everything about this book is really well-executed. The script is solid with all the details, the dialogue flows in a way that feels right, the settings and backgrounds look great, and I love the character designs. But it's also a story of a cult of some sort set in 1928 and running just as many parallels to today. Normally, that would be my jam, but at the same time we're in the middle of some really dark times, and adding more of it is cathartic to some degree and moreso for some than others, but it can also be something that you can spiral with. I'm intrigued to see more and if there is something greater at work here and to just savor the artwork and the characters. But I'm also fighting off some real wariness about reading about another cult. Read Full Review
A good opening issue, with great art and unique lettering choices takes what might be just another mystery comic and turn into something to watch out for. Read Full Review
creepy as hell
I think it started off really well. It wasn't super exciting, but gave me enough to look forward to the next issue.
