Inspired by the Mexican Day of the Dead, artist extraordinaire, RILEY ROSSMO (DEBRIS, GREEN WAKE, COWBOY NINJA VIKING, REBEL BLOOD) joins forces with nine different writers over three issues to tell tall tales from beyond the grave!
This series has become one of my favorites; it's a shame that the run will only last three issues. Hopefully, this book is released every quarter during the year with new stories. Let's keep those fingers crossed. It's been a long while since anyone had produced a comic like this outside of Dark Horse Presents, and I'll be sad to see it go. Read Full Review
The story perfectly reflects the Mexican holiday, reminding us that the dead are watching over us, especially our loved ones. Rossmo caps off the book with distorted imagery and crooked panels that only add to its dramatic flair. Dia De Los Muertos is perhaps the most terrifying read on the shelves right now, and it's packed with plenty of interesting moral lessons brought to life, courtesy of the dead. Read Full Review
It's a definite buy to add to anyone's collection. Mature readers only due to brief nudity. All in all, I recommend it. Read Full Review
The best anthologies mix up the story styles to derive maximum impact. By having similar stories in a row, they invite too much direct comparison. Also, no artwork in the book matches the beautiful cover to this book. I would think there is an audience for this book but at $4.99 an issue I will pass on these. Read Full Review
The writing team this issue is an impressive conglomerate consisting of Jeff Mariotte, Kurtis Wiebe and Joshua Williamson, each of whom does a generally pretty darn good job of driving Rossmo's overarching vision forward. This is not even close to my favorite Rossmo book (which is admittedly set at a high standard), but to get a quick, if not completely satisfying fix, it'll do in a pinch. Read Full Review
