I don't know why this story isn't sticking with me. Every issue I have to go back to the previous one(s) to remember what exactly happened. Perhaps I should stop reading the issues and wait until it's collected. 😅

This is a review of the entire series.
Women and girls are being snatched away by the dozen in the City of Lost Girls, a border town in the desert of Mexico. Shapeshifting wolves are the predators, the girls are their prey. A girl named Red swears vengeance on the wolves after they assault her hometown, slaughtering her family and dragging her big sister off to meet a gruesome end. Officer Frank Coffey begins to suspect his fellow workers of having something to do with the incident, and he teams up with Red and many other outcasted girls who have been victims of the wolves to put up a fight against the creatures. To the surprise of Frank and Red, the officers and rulers of the local towns are all werewolves.
Just like Abiding Perdition by Nick Schley, this is a loose retelling of Red Riding Hood in the form of a gritty revenge fantasy that unfortunately falls flat in almost every way. The art and character designs were actually very well done this time around and the action scenes were decent, but I didn't like anything else about it. The characters were unlikeable, none of them had any depth, development or plausible motivations and we barely get to learn a single thing about any of them. The monsters and villains were equally underdeveloped and had no plausible reasons for doing what they did or how/why they ever got their powers in the first place.
The sloppy pacing doesn't give you the time to care about anyone or anything that's going on. The death scenes feel almost comical because they're built up to be dramatic but the characters are impossible to like so their deaths feel entirely weightless. The lore and mythology had potential to be interesting, but it was only briefly touched upon and felt very anticlimactic in the end. The dialogue was also rather cringy and didn't suit the setting or the tone of the story at all.
The story wanted to tackle a lot of serious issues such as the dark side of immigration, rape culture, sexual predators, border patrol, police brutality and outdated gender stereotypes that continue to harm society, but everything is so rushed, undeveloped and poorly packed together that it just ends up feeling like a jumbled mess of unfinished ideas with no real thought or depth to them.

Really loving this story and concept of the werewolf curse. Hopefully sean lewis makes the 4th comic to continue on with this story.

It took me until this issue to realize this series is a delightfully dark retelling of Red Riding Hood, and I love it even more than I did before. So gruesome, so beautiful, so good.

3.5 — They invade the lab. All sorts of things go wrong. I think I liked this issue the best so far.

Natura, magia, folklore e scienza si uniscono, tanto che insieme, si arriva a combattere la scienza, la scienza che non guarda in faccia a nessuno, che schiavizza, che costringe.
