Richard Stallman is 43. After twelve years of marriage, his wife Karen has left him.
Richard has not returned to work. He’s depressed. He’s in a funk.
After avoiding the many troublesome matters in his life, Richard finally snaps.
While cutting the grass late one evening—much to his neighbors’ chagrin—Richard unearths an unusual discovery.
The tiny monsters look super cool.
At first, the little guys don’t seem so bad…but things devolve fairly quickly.
Gory. Excellent dark humor. I laughed out loud multiple times while reading this.
Interesting cliffhanger of an ending. Intrigued to see where this goes.
Eye-catching illustration style and nice story work.

I will definitely be continuing this one it was loads of fun weirdly enough the art could use a small amount of work for example blood being shown and then not when it should be but other than that it is amazing.

Non è crudo, ironico, splatter, abbastanza. Un racconto simpatico, carino, ben strutturato all'inizio, ma che poi manca di climax.

This comic book has a huge dark and atmospheric dive into horror which I found to be very enjoyable and fun which worked for this book advantage.
This comic book has a very moody, suspenseful narrative that slowly unravels a mysterious and eerie world filled with secrets and supernatural tension.
The pacing in this comic book is deliberate, allowing the story to build a palpable sense of dread without relying on cheap scares.
The artwork in this comic book is a standout, perfectly complementing the storytelling of this comic book while adding a signature gothic style to this comic book.
The heavy shadows, haunting character designs, and intricate details which this comic book has, has create an unsettling atmosphere that lingers long after the page is turned.
The visuals of this comic book does an excellent job of evoking classic horror vibes while feeling fresh and engaging.
However the thing which I didn’t like about this comic book is the story in this comic book tends to be on the slower side when it comes to developing the storyline into something more than just being a forgetful storyline which readers will forgot when they finish this comic book.
