As high quality as The Woods was, this is a fantastic start to what I hope will be an incredible series.

I got a lot of Buffy The Vampire Slayer vibes from this an that is a good thing, but it was also unique in its mystery and lore. 

The only downside for me was the creature design, which I found pretty generic.

Very solid start to the series and I'm interested to see where it goes. Hoping to get some more info on the characters as it progresses.

Pretty light on details and not much is revealed about monsters, the monster hunter, the person who might be her handler, or this town where kids are getting murdered and stolen. Some gore, bad adult choices, and plenty of cursing.

This is one of my all-time favourite graphic novels, probably second only to Black Magick. If you like Wytches or Saga, this is definitely up your alley. Hard to say much more about it without giving anything away!

Moderate: Homophobia

Important to note that the warning for homophobia is based on an interaction with side characters and is not a primary stance of the book, quite the opposite.
