Mysteriously, some kids have gone missing over the last few months. Suddenly, when a few friends venture into the woods, all but one are viciously killed, and the one that survives is traumatized. There's something out there that only the children are able to see, and it is brutally killing them! Luckily, a new stranger shows up in town, and she's a badass who is there to help. Too bad the adults don't understand. They only get in her way. However, she needs to move quickly before it’s too late, and she is on it!
I loved this graphic novel. The plot packed a punch and kept me wanting to find out what was going to happen next. The artwork was descriptive to the story, and I loved the focused looks in the eyes of the characters.
I am looking forward to continuing to read more in this series!

I've only read about half of this comic book but after being recommended it by Amazon and having a look at the preview I'm really happy I took the plunge and ordered a copy! For less than £8 delivered to your door you can't complain.
The artwork is great and the story seems like such a mystery at the start that as soon as opening the first page I had to force myself to put it down halfway and actually do some adulting.
Interesting characters and a monster plot have me hooked already!

Something is killing they children may not be the most beautiful comic book I’ve seen, but the plot was pretty great and I loved that our main had her clothes on. The way the writers depicted the reactions of the townspeople was also pretty good; they’re angry and grieving, drinking to excess and falling apart. Some are attempting to regain control by lashing out at the one child who survived and the new woman in town. Erica also makes a great main because while she’s angry at the person she’s working with (who we never really see), she doesn’t get mad at the people around her in the town; she’s seen these reactions before and is used to dealing with them. She apologises to the boy when she snaps because she recognises how messed up all of this is for him and is gentler than expected. She’s a great contrast to a lot of heroes we see who demolish things in their way and act injured when no one loves them.
Something Is Killing the Children is part of a four part series of the same name. The writer for the series is James Tynion (which autocorrect changed to Tyrion for a minute), with Werther Dell’Edera as the illustrator and Miquel Muerto as...

José Alexis Lara CastañedaJosé Alexis Lara Castañeda: El cómic es genial. La edición en inglés es perfecta para la colección y a un precio inmejorable, la calidad del papel es muy buena y los colores son vividos. Por mi parte, la edición que me llegó tenía un pequeño daño que pasa desapercibido, pero que si tienes mucha manía podrias no dejar de verlo. Le recomiendo a Amazon que maneje de mejor forma los paquetes que envía, ya me llego sin plástico protector y sólo con bolsas de aire dentro de la caja para protegerlo de movimientos bruscos en el transporte.

HONEST REVIEWER: This series has the potential to be something unique and entertaining. Erica slaughter, a suitable name for her, appears to be a part of an organization that hunts monsters. This particular monster in Wisconsin is seen by children, who believe in monsters, however, adults are unable to see it. this monster not only abduct children, but stores them in a nest for later consumption. Erica appears to be skilled at hunting these things. IThis very first episode was thrilling and engaging. Can’t wait for part two.
