Snyder, Tuft and Fukari are making up the new old American horror. They're looking to scare the shit out of us by taking parts of turn-of-the-century quaint legends, like the hobo, the travelling salesman and taking a man at his word, and revealing that our trust in the world is misguided. The results of misplaced trust are terrifying. Read Full Review
This comic subscribes to a style of storytelling unlike any mainstream book that's coming out right now. The slow pace could be confused for decompressed storytelling, but unlike those stories, here in Severed every panel and every word is important. Things are building slowly, but there are building towards something big. I'm already getting squeamish reading this title, and things have barely gotten started. I am both excited and reluctant to see what comes next for Jack and Sam. Read Full Review
With another solid issue in the Severed series, it's clear that Snyder and Tuft mean business. The chilling cliffhanger at the end of #3 left me both terrified and wanting so much more. If you are patient enough to give Severed a chance, thenI highly encourage you to do so.From this issue, it's clear that things are going to start getting a little crazy--even crazier than before--and I simply can't wait to see what happens next.

The final page is as chilling as a cliffhanger can get. Knowing what's been mentioned about the build up this series will have, I keep expecting things to start going insane at any moment. And while I'm echoing my concern that we haven't started seeing that sort of progression yet, I'm still very much enjoying the deliberately paced story that's being told here. Read Full Review
"Severed" is a book that is overlooked. Scott Snyder's name is on the cover, so readers can have an estimation of what to expect, but they need to find this book first. If you can't find it, look behind you. It's just sneaky enough that it may be right there. If that doesn't work, try asking your retailer or check out an online source. With Halloween approaching you owe yourself a nice, creepy scare. This book delivers on all points. Read Full Review
