Dogwitch #3

by Daniel Schaffer

Take a peek at the twisted origin of Violet Grimm, courtesy of Moko the Goblin Clown and his Toxic Pool of Illumination, in this sadistic conclusion to the goth cult-phenomenon! Still reeling from Dolores' betrayal, Violet now faces more trouble in the form of a bizarre allergy to the psychic fallout. Rising from Moko's toxic waters only to discover that her Goblin birth party has been gate crashed by the Sex Doll Cheerleaders, the bruised and battered Dogwitch once again comes face to face with Elastic Head. With Mr. Kinky playing sidekick, Violet Grimm is heading back to the Nice Bunny World to unravel a cosmic conspiracy and face off with those responsible for banishing her to the Banewoods. She's coming home, and she's going to bring a little chaos to The Order.

Reviews

[Deviancy · Rating 4 out of 5]

Dogwitch is an interesting little piece of comic book fiction. The lead character, Violet, is a witch who loves rubber outfits, demons, and being a sarcastic little tart. Imagine a character Siouxsie and Elvira elements, then just toss in a little gothic porn. The story isn't X rated visually, but the subject matter may not be suitable for the little kiddies out there.

Mood Swings is the third volume, it collects the final issues of the series. The story ends with a bang, a very violent and wicked bang.

Now where's the movie?

[Robert Bussie · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is the final book in the Dogwitch trilogy. The first volume was played for cheesy puns. The second volume has some humor but started to form a continuous story line. This volume explains the origin of Violet Grimm and the death of her sister. It is a lot less humorous and more concise. However, it is also the most enjoyable of the books.

All three volumes have amazing black and white art work.
