From Cullen Bunn(Harrow County, The Sixth Gun, Night Walkers) and Joe Bocardo(Night Walkers) comes a new tale of Hellish familial horror. Jamison Kreel is dead. Six of his children from six mothers are attending the funeral of a father they never met. Each of the children possesses a different infernal power. These powers, though, come at a terrible price...a price Jamison Kreel has placed upon the heads of his offspring. And the demonic debtors have come to collect.

    Capes & Tights - Justin Soderberg Sep 23, 2024

    The Hexiles #1 is a truly atmospheric debut that delivers on its promise of Hellish familial horror. With Cullen Bunn at the helm and Joe Bocardo bringing his unique artistic vision to life on the page, this series has all the makings for one hell of a series in the horror genre. Proving once again that Mad Cave Studios is a real player in horror. Read Full Review

    Bocardo delivers some beautifully dark and detailed art throughout the issue. I love the visual style of this story and how it pushes the horror elements with the characters and their environment. Read Full Review

    Graphic Policy - Brett Oct 30, 2024

    The Hexiles #1 is a solid debut that delivers a bit of action and a bit of horror resulting in a mix that feels both familiar and new. It shows off a lot of potential and will be interesting to see where it goes as hell comes for the characters for payback. Read Full Review

    Comical Opinions - Gabriel Hernandez Nov 1, 2024

    THE HEXILES #1 is a brisk, efficiently constructed, and gory supernatural start to a story about estranged siblings hunted by supernatural forces. Cullen Bunn's debut issue is well-paced and well-constructed, and Joe Bocardo's art style is an effective mix of detailed settings and grimy horror. Read Full Review

    Major Spoilers - Jonathan Cadotte Nov 2, 2024

    Hexiles #1 sets up a really cool concept and then pairs it with a cadre of unlikeable characters which drowns out most of the interest created by that concept. Read Full Review

    Feels a bit too much like Infernals but it's fun enough I guess. The petulant youth shtick takes away from the enjoyment as it's so commonplace in entertainment and here it never allows any of the characters to stand out and be memorable. The gore is good though.
