LIBRARY JOURNAL -- Kyle Barnes is a pariah, living in squalor after becoming estranged from his wife and child following an act of shocking violence years before. Convinced that madness and despair follow him wherever he goes, Kyle is given a chance at a new start-and possibly some answers to his own past-when a small-town pastor convinces him that all his troubles are owing to the existence of demonic forces eager to possess and subvert humanity and that Kyle just might have a larger destiny in a cosmic battle between good and evil. Discovering the demons is only the beginning, as Kyle soon finds out that some evil doesn't just resist exorcism, it goes on the offensive. The work is cocreated by writer Kirkman (The Walking Dead) and illustrator Azaceta (B.P.R.D.), with colorist Breitweiser (Kill or Be Killed), whose skills at conveying small moments of human drama make the bloodier bits all the more astounding.
Verdict This initial volume is mostly concerned with setting the stage for the larger tale, but horror fans aware of Kirkman's pedigree should eat it up nonetheless.-Tom Batten, Grafton, VA
