Do you like mystery? Great artwork? Fantasy? Stories that will leave you endlessly wondering what happened? Chills all over your body when you reach that last page? Bradbury's books? How about Neil Gaiman and Joe Hill? Well, you're in for a good read. So many great little stories. Some of them amazing, some of them great, and some of them good. Also had one or two that didn't do it for me, but still. A Great little collection of mysteries that will have you wanting for more when you're done reading. I especially loved the "Who knocks?" story. That was just pure darkness. Everything about this story was completely over the top. Many congratulations to the team. I'll definitely give it a second read in the future and recommend the graphic novel for THIS STORY ALONE to everyone. Goosebumps everywhere! Hill's story was great with lots of sadness and Gaiman's story was just brilliant, I also listened to his audiobook of the same story, but seeing it in comicbook form is just wonderful. It really is a next-level storytelling about reading and books. Truthfully, I don't really have adequate language to describe the whole thing. You just need to read it and be there without any disturbance. It was really deep and it was something that you need to read twice while agreeing with everything our "character" is saying. Totally recommend this collection!
