As an occasional horror comic fan there's a lot to like about the new Justice League Dark. It does a great job establishing the new status quo for the magic side of DC's universe, has a very unique cast of characters with some new additions I have already become a fan of (I didn't think I'd care for Detective Chimp and nerdy Langstrom is absolutely adorable). But I despise how this volume is collected. 3 issues into the book and all of a sudden the story takes a break to tell a story that ISN'T COLLECTED IN THIS VOLUME, and then comes back without explaining what happened or the repercussions. Those repercussions aren't super necessary for the story in this volume, but it was readily apparent I missed some big character moments by not having the other book. It's still good, you just have to buy another book alongside this one to enjoy the full story and I'm not a fan of that :/
