Welcome to Litsy!

Ohh, that certainly went places. I think I'd hoped for a happier ending, but... no, this makes sense.

This filled soooo many prompts for different stuff, ahaha. Also I'd say if you're looking for a spooky graphic novel quick read for #HauntedShelf or the #GottaCatchEmAllSpooky, I'd recommend this. It's a bit gory, a bit creepy, the ideas are pretty neat, and I like the art. I'm interested enough to see where the story goes; I'll read the next volume.

A very unique, dynamic comic. Lots of heavy themes and gruesome art. Not always easy to follow, but an interesting, post-apocalyptic world of religious oppression and the struggle to survive.

A book so acidly cynical that your fingers smoke from flipping the pages. Can't put it down, tho.

I don't know what Rick Remender was going through when he wrote this, but he seems to be dealing with a lot of regret about being a workaholic and a bad dad. It's rare to read a comic that so endlessly crucifies its protagonist.

Growing up, I never got into comics. Even now, I can‘t follow ones with complicated panels like most of the Marvel or DC comics. I Hate Fairyland is one of the first comics I ever read and I‘m absolutely hooked on it, but I still don‘t go into comic book stores. I feel out of place because I read two or three series and that‘s it. Fortunately, Skottie is giving away copies of his Free Comic Book Day IHF with each order of a creator owned book 😍

34/100 This wasn't the conclusion that I wanted, but I guess it is the ending that best suits the story. In the end, there's no justice, for anyone, people die, the studio covers more scandals, and everyone shrugs and goes about their business as if it's all supposed to be this way. 3.75/5 #Read2025 #SeriesLove2025

33/100 The mystery deepens as our writer "hero" foolishly falls in love with the actress hired to replace the other actress. Plenty of secrets come out, dirty tricks, sexual assaults, perversions, scandals the studio is willing to kill to keep quiet. Charlie, the writer, is too drunk most of the time to realize the real danger he is involved in. 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ #Read2025 #SeriesLove2025

32/100 A very dark and gritty story of late 1940s Hollywood. A young starlet is found dead, and the studio rushes to cover up the scandal. A screenwriter, with writer's block, becomes involved because he knows the studio's story isn't true. It's very dark, there aren't any really likeable characters, even the MMC is a coward you folds under studio pressure to keep quiet. 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ #Read2025 #SeriesLove2025

It takes an amazing writer like Brubaker to take the tired, beaten-down ‘vigilante‘ trope and breathe new life into it (with a supernatural twist). A depressed grad student tries to commit suicide but instead becomes enthralled by a dark power that propels him to take lives or suffer consequences. Another crime classic by Brubaker. Recommended!
