Need Coffee's Review of SULLEN GREY

Apr 10, 2008 18:53








The fine folks at NeedCoffee recently reviewed the first SULLEN GREY trade - and here's what they had to say:

Welcome to Autumn's Grove. It's a town that seems so happy and safe and friendly that from the first page of Sullengrey: Cemetery Things you know that things are not going to end well. And seriously, why would you want it to? It's a collection of a comic mini-series that has a bit of everything in it: entrails, mad scientists, a demented asylum, psychotic people who maim other people, weird phenomena, serial killers, and more. Plus a protagonist who denies being all gothy (don't ask to touch his hair, no matter how cool it looks) while still looking like a cross between Robert Smith and the X-dude Chamber. The writing is pure morbid whimsy by Jocelyn Gajeway. The art is like Ted McKeever on lithium and Drew Rausch's coloring is probably my favorite bit. This Ape Entertainment release comes with a bonus story and a convo with the creators. Vertigo fans take note!
