Emmy is faced with a decision: will she join the mysterious coven that claims to be her family? If she goes with them and leaves Harrow County, everything she's ever known will be destroyed. But if she denies this powerful family and stays to protect her home, she will make enemies out of the most powerful beings she's ever encountered.
The action moves quickly through the issue, with Tyler Crook stretching his muscles for emotive characters, particularly fearful and angry across multiple people. Between a glimpse at the creature in the woods once more and a brief mention of Kammi, this issue is a callback to many of Harrow County's fluttering threads in the best way. The ending of the issue is worth it in itself and I am eager to see the outcome next time (where's Bernice?). Read Full Review
One of the books I look forward to the most every month, Harrow County delivers another quality issue. Tyler Crook's art keeps getting better and better with every issue, and his lines alone are worth the price of admission. Read Full Review
If you read this comic like I did the first time around, you will probably be disappointed. This isn't a climax issue. This is a plateau, an experiment in how comics are told. It's one of those issues that's true worth won't be known until the arc is resolved. Despite its flaws, it's still one of the better books out there. And if the story is going where I think it's going, I think the real answers should be coming in soon. Read Full Review
This is one of the best horror series I've ever read. It goes beyond the typical horror stereotypes, and brings a deeper, more sophisticated kind of terror to the audience. This is definitely a series for all horror fans. Read Full Review
I also like the way Bunn solidified the importance of Harrow County itself to the mythology of the series. Besides being a perfectly haunting setting, it also continues to develop into a great character within the series itself.Combine that with Crook's aforementioned beautiful artwork, and Harrow County #16 definitely has more good than bad between the pages. Let's hope that the conclusion of this story arc allows it to go back to being great again as Halloween approaches. Read Full Review
