People have been eagerly documenting all the things they want to do when the Pandemic is over.

To those lists add a trip to Gideon Falls! (That needed the sarcasm font: there’s no way I’d ever visit Gideon Falls. No way “in hell.”)

What Jeff Lemire and Andrea Sorrentino have achieved with this fantastic horror comic book is stunning.

So this the end is nigh news is sad yet a hopefully satisfying end to a highly recommended story.

Horror and comics fit so well: they’re peanut butter and chocolate. I wish we had more quality horror comics.

The Immortal Hulk, the Archie Horror comic books  and Gideon Falls being current and excellent examples. (Long Live EC Comics!)

Bonus Recommendation: I generally believe that people who dig Gideon Falls will dig Dark on Netflix.

Gideon Falls

is more horror while Dark is more sci-fi but it’s same jumbled non-linear something bad happened in the past (but which past and whose past) epic tale. It’s a whole thing.

“Once upon a time there was a little boy named Gus. He had antlers and lived with his father in a little cabin in the woods,” reads DC’s description of the original Vertigo series. “Then his father died, and the big man with cold eyes took Gus away. Gus went on many great adventures, found friends, love, happiness, family, and acceptance.”

It sounds like Forrest Gump however Sweet Tooth is classic Lemire. (And I cannot articulate why or how but it is incredibly Canadian.) Highly Recommended Reading and I’m glad it’s coming back.
