I'm so happy I gave this another shot. Having read Scott Snyder's Severed earlier this year, I knew I wanted to give this another go.

When the issues were being published I had grabbed the first 3 every month, but I couldn't get into the story at all. And I know why now. This story lends itself to be read completely start to finish without 30 days in between.

The art style may be one of my favorites, and Snyder's storytelling is so mesmerizing. His characters are interesting and their connections with each other adds this family element to a horror story that I sometimes don't get but feel like I need going forward.

That element of this story is what made it. Sail and her father's bond was undeniable and really brought this story to life and made it a very fulfilling read.

I highly recommend it!
