Exorsisters is probably the first comic/graphic novel series that has really hooked me. We follow good girl Cate, who at a young age, lost her soul to the devil due to her mother making a bad deal. Later in life, she found her soul, now embodied as a wild child named Kate, again but they were two different to be rejoined. Now they live as sisters.
When the series starts, we find that Cate and Kate have started their own private investigation business to help people who have made bad deals with demons/devils. We then continue to follow them as their mother comes back into their lives and causes some more shit to hit the fan.
The whole concept of this graphic novel is great, and I love the relationship between Cate and Kate. It's such a weird situation but they really do care about each other and would do anything for each other. Watching them take on the craziness of their business together gives me hardcore early season Supernatural vibes.
The art is also very well done; I love the color palette and the style in general.
The only thing I can really say that I didn't like is that the second issue is pretty much one giant flashback explaining the backstory and it felt super out of place and slowed down the pace of the first issue immensely.
I very much enjoyed this volume and will definitely be purchasing my own copy at release and look forward to future issues/volumes.
