GIRLS By Joshua and Jonathan Luna






Girls

Category: Adult Graphic Novel, Sci Fi, Drama

Vivid artwork, engrossing characters and a suspenseful plot bring Girls around like the best of horror stories. In the sleepy little Pennystown a mystery is becoming unearthed. A gorgeous and dazed naked woman comes darting out of the woods in front of average guy Ethan.  But when strange eggs appear and savage attacks occur, everyone in Pennystown is left scrambling to understand and survive.
The visually striking graphics make this novel feel more like a movie playing out. The deep, bright colors often contrast the brutality of the egg-women. The dialogue is realistic, each character believable. It’s a horror story with blurry edges. The egg-women at times appear docile, at times murderous. Are they all the same or is the first one that Ethan found different? With the town’s population shrinking and everyone suffering various degrees of insanity, any and everything can happen.

I was completely spellbound by this book. It got my curiosity from the cover alone and devoured me within a few pages. Very adult themes and gore aplenty, this one is not for the faint of heart. If you’d like to savor a chilling tale of epic proportions, this might be your next read!
