Imaginary Friends is like Drop Dead Fred with the little girl from The Ring. It's twisted and unsettling, presenting a world filled with monsters that only a few of us can see. This issue wastes no time introducing us to the landscape and establishing the parameters of the setting. I can't wait to see how it's expanded upon as there are tons of possibilities with this concept. The sky is the limit as the IMPs can be almost anything. Read Full Review

IMAGINARY FIENDS will come out monthly, so there's no excuse to miss out on this literary masterpiece. Keep in mind the imagery can be strong, there's death galore and some bloody moments. The entire sentiment behind the main IMP is an insatiable hunger for fear and adoration born from it, so it's not suitable for younger kids. However, if you're not easily frightened and prone to fits of fainting, I cannot recommend IMAGINARY FIENDS highly enough. Read Full Review

All in all though, Imaginary Fiends is an interesting concept that I am very much entertained by. Things we thought we dreamt up in our minds to be our friends really turn out to be these creatures that feed off of us. As a kid, I remember watching Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends, a show where kids dropped off their imaginary friends as they grew up so that some other child in need of companionship could come along and adopt them to a loving home. Now Im an adult reading a comic about parasites that invade the minds of the young in order to sustain themselves, with the slight chance that theyll become real monsters and give them that nudge they need into doing something they can never come back from.

I had never even heard of Imaginary Fiends before I saw it on our review list. And honestly, based on the title alone I kind of assumed it would be a throw-away book " something to be read and then immediately forgotten. But I'm happy to say that's not the case. I'm happy because this book is fresh and exciting and I'm also happy because I'm always happy when I find a new horror book that I actually like. Read Full Review
