Now Baba Yaga is out for revenge. Armed with steampunk weapons and surprising action moves for an old Russian lady, Baba Yaga takes on the thieves and all the magic of an entire witches' convention. Enjoy the chaos as Baba Yaga gets monstrous!
It was straight up witch on witch violence. The callbacks to some of the more commercially known witches was definitely appreciated. There is a really great easter egg panel, thats sort of a roster call for a who's who in the witching world, and some who may not have been so apparent. It is a shame that is only a one shot. Though there were indications toward the end of the book that Source Point may allow for some stories later on down the line. I hope that's definitely the case. Read Full Review
An amusing black comedy, Monstrous: Baba Yaga (Source Point Press) is an entertaining supernatural thriller that confidently mixes scares with laughs. With a feminist message at the story’s core, Baba Yaga will cast a meta spell onto its readers. The narrative cleverly uses witchcraft as a way to repair a broken life as much as means for revenge.
