Critics Review
“Captures the tension and vulnerability that make the game work while still standing on its own as a comic.” Comic Crusaders
“Successfully translates the tension and dread of the video game into a grounded horror comic that favors atmosphere and character over nonstop slasher spectacle. Fridolfs builds suspense through Officer Darnell Hollis, giving readers a relatable anchor before unleashing the larger terror lurking beneath the town’s surface. Kotz reinforces the tone with gritty, pulpy visuals that feel raw and unsettling. While readers expecting a Hillbilly-focused debut may wish for more page time from the killer, the slow-burn approach strengthens the mystery and creates a strong foundation for the series.” AIPT
“Fans of the video game will very much enjoy this ride and will love learning more about their favorite, iconic killers in Dead by Daylight.” Comics Online
“Artist Dean Kotz gives the book a gritty 1970s’ feel … The killer is more than clear. In fact, he looks better and more frightening than in the video game.” Comicon.com
“Doesn’t fail to entertain, and readers will come to like this comic book.” Impulse Gamer
