LIBRARY JOURNAL -- Edwyn Stoffgruppen is a
frighteningly unique individual. Maniacally driven to extreme responses directed
toward those around him, whom he perceives as rude, vulgar, inconsiderate, or a
threat-he has managed to carve a bloody, dysfunctional little niche for himself
out of this cruel world. He's also found love along the way in the form of an
inflatable blonde named Virginia. They are good for each other. She likes
sharing doughnuts with him, and he stops putting people's heads in bags when she
is around. It's a marriage made in polymer hell. Eclectic and prolific creator
Wagner (World of Warcraft; The Ride) teams with the stylishly grim
illustration abilities of Hillyard (I.C.E.; Sherwood Texas) to
produce an indelibly horrific graphic novel. Martin's keen coloring sense
perfectly welds this eye-searing love story into a cohesive continuity of
twisted and depraved ghastliness.
Verdict
Mature lovers of horror, grave tales, and quality artistic craftsmanship will
read this book in one shivering sitting.-Russell Miller, Prescott P.L.,
