Holy hell. NYT raves don’t get any better:
“A thunderous gallop of a war novel, a new classic, a best-in-class example of speculative fiction. Mysterious and full of grace, rambling and ducking and shifting for 285 dizzying, blood-soaked, astonishing pages.”

The Autumnal was one of the best horror comics I've read. The dialogue was smooth and the artwork fit the story well. I'm a fan of the Fall so it was also the perfect read for spooky season.
