This was a really nice surprise.

 

Very much in the quick and quirky feel of Buffy, we have our main character Zadie who is just trying to survive high school. Soon into the story we find out her brother is in a coma and she's just trying to deal with her life and family. Soon she begins to see shadows who try to hunt and get her, but her brother, who is now a shadow comes to her aid. She then has to figure out what to do next.

 

This feels like a TV show in the best possible way. Quick and fun dialogue, lots of cool moments with the shadows, art really solid. Nothing is really amazing or mindblowing. No heavy twist that change the narrative. But some cool moments at the end and one that got me excited for more, I'd for sure recommend Shadecraft as a comic to check out this year.

 

A 4 out of 5.
