Reviews

[Jon · Rating 5 out of 5]

I read the first four issues of this five part series about a year and a half to two years ago and for some reason never finished the final comic. This was an excellent story inspired by Ray Bradbury and unlike its predecessors, there's only one story within instead of two or three. I've never heard of Alice Hoffman before, but she managed to capture the essence of Bradbury's imagination with her subtle, creepy tale.
