    You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff Jul 25, 2023

    The monster they're facing now is something that challenges them quite a lot. And there's a deep thematic complexity about it. They hunt monsters. They feel like monsters.

The thirty-first issue explores some of that around the edges of everything in a way that cleverly increases the overall horror of the story. Read Full Review

    COMICON - Tom Smithyman Jul 19, 2023

    A tired, bloated script is putting this entire series in dire straits. Instead of reinvigorating the story with a new arc, readers are burdened with more of the same. That has an impact on the once-great art as well, which is a real shame. Read Full Review
