On a lot of top 10 lists, I thought I’d start with the first volume. It’s a dark fantasy horror, where each issue has a different focus, communicating different darker themes and plots in contemporary times. For me, it was just alright. I don’t really care about this kind of subject matter and aren’t really into horror, generally - I’m just not the market for this at all. It’s too gonzo and superficial enough that I just couldn’t connect with any aspect of it, but recognize why people would be into it.
