Sorry to say that while I found the story interesting and definitely frightening as always with dark illustrations in many graphic novels I couldn't tell what was going on in all the action shots - I confess I would prefer to read a description rather than try to discern several pages of small boxes. Fans of horror comics will definitely enjoy this! I haven't read anything by Howard, but became fascinated with him after seeing the movie The Whole Wide World staring Renee Zellweger and Vincent D'Onofrio as Howard and Novalyne Price - also a writer. Very interesting!
