This is a very weird intersection of genres, but the end result is a very enjoyable jaunt that I'm going to be following very intently. Smith and Cardinali play off each other incredibly well, and I can't wait to see what future shenanigans are on the horizon. Read Full Review
Cardinali delivers some fantastic and surreal imagery throughout the issue. The dream sequences are delightfully trippy and the art does a wonderful job of capturing the mood and tone of the story. Read Full Review
All in all,Slumber #1is a fun read. Tyler Burton Smiths dialogue is quick and witty. From the beginning, the waking and dream worlds stand clearly defined by the art and character designs. This keeps the shifting between the two worlds from becoming too jarring for the reader. The concept of the story allows for plenty of growth and exploration of both Stenson and Finch. Meanwhile, keeping them apart in this first issue leaves something to look forward to in the future.Slumber #1definitely deserves a spot on your weekly pull list. Read Full Review

'Slumber' brilliant combines dream logic with classic procedurals for an off-kilter tale all its own. Read Full Review
Slumber's cast isn't here to ask what our dreams say about us. They're here to shoot the annoying bits and get a paycheck. Hopefully not give in to stress. Read Full Review
The issue begins with a detective duo investigating the latest murder caused by a possessed person. Theyre the typical clich detectives, and they have no idea of the magnitude of whats going on. So much of the issue is spent with Stetson, that the detectives come off as bland and flat because we get to know nothing about them. By the end of the issue, its inevitable that their paths will cross with Stetson, so hopefully, at that point, theyll be fleshed out more. Maybe Stetson will enter their nightmares so we can see what makes them tick? Read Full Review

Fun, visually creative premise with a solid mystery and some strong twists and turns for a #1; sets the groundwork up for what could be a very fun series and if they're lucky, a TV SERIES within the next 1 - 5 years or so on some streaming service, somewhere.
A strong first issue with a lot of potential!!
We're introduced to Stetson, who is basically an exterminator of nightmares, as she blasts through a client's carnival dream. But something else has potentially been tampering with people's dreams, a dream spirit seems to be out for revenger for the one they call "Dream Eater" resulting in the violence to start spilling into the real world.
The art is mostly flawless throughout, simple and effective all because of the vibrant colours that pop off the page. The book is gritty with a playful undertone, with the art summing up each panel splendidly.
The story is fresh, intriguing and well paced, leaving a few loose ends to entice the reader to continue into the nex more
It's definitely a good concept but, we will need to see more moving forward. It was a pretty good start though. Liked how weird and wild it was. Very entertaining.
