    As this story develops I am inclined to believe that this is definitely going to be a slow-burn experience, it is a story which will develop and unravel slowly over time. So if you are looking for a comic that is full of plot twists and action this may not be for you. But if you are looking for something slower and gripping I would highly recommend it.

    I feel like Bunn has gone above and beyond in this title. The creativy it takes to write something like this is or even think of the idea of the story is just insane. I'm not totally sure where it's going. It's seriously an awesome read. Read Full Review

    The Super Powered Fancast - Deron Generally Aug 29, 2018

    This story continues to be compelling as it builds this strange and interesting world for these characters to inhabit. Cullen Bunn has crafted characters worth caring about and relationships that are intriguing to explore. Read Full Review

    Horror DNA - James Ferguson Sep 1, 2018

    Bone Parish is like a paranormal version of The Wire. Instead of Stringer Bell and Avon Barksdale, we've got the Winters family, struggling to keep up with an ever-increasing demand while rival gangs start to hone in on their turf and the feds are circling like vultures. Writer Cullen Bunn is delivering a solid crime story that is amplified by the chilling horror angle. Read Full Review

    Multiversity Comics - Christa Harader Sep 3, 2018

    "Bone Parish" delves into family histories and crime complexities, and a second issue is the right time for it. This book is promising, but what unspools next will be critical to set it apart from the pack. Read Full Review

    Bleeding Cool - Joshua Davison Aug 31, 2018

    Bone Parish #2 is still just too boring. There are improvements over the first issue with this one, but the plot burns very slowly, doesnt have a change in tone or atmosphere to break up the dreariness, and the color work is similarly stuck on the one note. Unfortunately, I cant recommend this book. Read Full Review

    With the plotting problems of last issue resolved, there is no narrative confusion here. The same themes permeate the script, and the art continues to impress (with a couple of caveats regarding the level of detail due to the colour palette and the age of characters). Much of the issue is devoted to various flashbacks to build the back story of the characters. While this does help to flesh them out and leave plenty of interest to the reader, it also slows the plot a little. Nonetheless this is another strong issue.

    Another great issue where we lear another peace of the secret behind the ash.
    We also see that all the member of the family have trouble with another member.
    We also see that the cops are in the business too.
    Great stuff.

    Couver - Nice but not related 1/2
    Writing - I love what I read. 3/3
    Arts - Still great 3/3
    Feeling - Love it 2/2
