brittbat 's review for:
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Vol. 1: The Crucible
by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa
I've been aware of this for awhile, and it floated on my mental list of Books I'll Get Around To Eventually until Garrett expedited the eventually part by shoving it into my hands and telling me that I would like it. And he was correct!
I spent fond TGIF time as a child watching Sabrina, The Teenage Witch, to the point that I had a Salem the cat Giga Pet and now, as an adult, unabashedly own the entire series on DVD. One might think that history would set me up to get all pearl-clutchy and "My childhood!!" about this new, blood-drenched, corpse-eating, Satanic Sabrina... But you'd be wrong. I loved every panel, perhaps especially when In the introduction Aguirre-Sacasa says that Chilling Adventures of Sabrina has a strong Sandman influence, and that's apparent in the storytelling and retro art style, which reminded me a lot of Preludes and Nocturnes.
I've really been feeling the rebooted Archieverse lately, and this has only added fuel to that fire. Definitely plan to read Volume 2, and to give Afterlife with Archie a try, too.

Harvey is eaten by witches, because Harvey has never been my favorite. Too earnest, too boring, too dumb.I've really been feeling the rebooted Archieverse lately, and this has only added fuel to that fire. Definitely plan to read Volume 2, and to give Afterlife with Archie a try, too.
