    I've been hooked since issue one of this story, and it shows no sign of letting go just yet. Sleep #5 is an excellent progression of the story that may provide some hope (and provides some fertile ground for theorizing). Read Full Review

    All of these fascinating elements makes for a riveting story. Is it a slow burn, yes. Is it thrilling, also yes. These characters are magnetic and mysterious. The world itself exudes a strange aura. I can't help but crave the next piece of the puzzle. Jon's past hides a secret, I'm sure of it. However, so does this town as a whole. It's a living breathing character in the story. I just want to know what it's all hiding! Read Full Review

There's no reason to believe that Cannon would necessarily all victim to this sort of thing. As the mystery continues to lurk around the corners of the action, the possibility that the revelation at the end of the all could be disappointment, continues to haunt every page. Read Full Review
