The Woods, Vol. 5: The Horde by James Tynion IV

4.0

Holy moly. This volume has a lot of death. The author has no issue culling off the masses, that's for sure. I honestly wish that Calder was less of a cinnamon roll when it comes to his asshole of a brother, Casey. I'm pretty sure if Calder didn't allow himself to be pushed around, then a lot of deaths could've been avoided! That said, I totally understand why he is like that with Casey, it's a sad story. That creepy alien monster thing that's taking over Isaac is totally CREEPY AF. I think what makes this artwork so fitting to the story is that it gives it so much more of a rough/creepy feel. The details on the scary faces are pretty gruesome. Also not surprising that a lot happened in this volume, but still super invested! You can read my full review on my blog.
