    I'm fully invested in this series. The second arc begins in February so fortunately there won't be a long wait to pick this story up again. Read Full Review

    A visual feast but light on exposition. The story doesn't move much further forward, yet somehow maintains its momentum. Read Full Review

    Comic Vine - Gregg Katzman Jan 21, 2015

    I'm constantly wanting to see more and more of this twisted place and thankfully, the art team makes this setting and its characters every bit as tense and scary as it should be. Love horror or stories about surviving against impossible odds? Read SPREAD. Read Full Review

    Spread is not for everyone. You can probably say that about the horror genre itself.

    Spread kind of feels like it’s treading water but also has a lot of elements that carry promise. They just need to be used to their true potential. Every issue, this one included, has felt like a set up for the next and it’s not really paying off yet. The enigmatic potential and energy is there, it just needs to be honed. Read Full Review

    Comic Bastards - Steven E. Paugh Jan 21, 2015

    I was pumped when Spread first dropped, and have enjoyed it in varying turns since. I'm stepping back from the series for now, but rest assured that I'll be the first one back if it can recapture its consistency and once again realize its promise. Read Full Review
