Set the foundations for an interesting concept.
I like the art style and the storyline so far has me keen to pick up the next volume.

I'm a fan of Tynion's other work, especially Nice House on the Lake, so I want top read the rest of the series to see where it goes; this first volume leaves far too much yet unexplained (though the foreshadowing of a dark cabal of monster-killers isn't altogether promising).
Am I missing something, or is some horror now more akin to dark fantasy? I felt no horror, but was compelled a bit by the action.
(And as ever, kudos to Tynion for normalizing the non-binary.)
