Hack/Slash: Comic Book Carnage

Hack/Slash

by Tim Seeley, Federica Madfredi

Vlad and Cassie must deal with a human murderer, Lloyd Sundermann with a parasitic twin, Jimmy at a comic book convention. Breaking the fourth wall of sorts, the murderer and his brother go after Steve Niles, Scottie Young, and Robert Kirkman, real-life comic book creators, and murder them for turning an "innocent" golden age hero into a brooding "modern" hero.

[Michael Sorbello · Rating 4 out of 5]

Hack and Slash try to put an end to a crazy comic book nerd with a killer parasitic twin. They attend a comic book convention where famous horror comic authors are being killed over making darker changes to classic characters without the killer’s approval.

A funny meta story that actually features big horror comic artists as characters being hunted down by the villain, authors such as Robert Kirkman (The Walking Dead), Steve Niles (30 Days of Night) among others. It’s a riff on how classic wholesome stories are constantly being rebooted into dark, edgy R-rated versions of their former selves while simultaneously poking fun at folks who can’t accept change or different interpretations of classic stories at all.

Has cute friendship moments between Cassie and Vlad and some self aware meta humor.
