One of the best new spooky comics of 2020. --SyFy Brutally funny horror that finds genuine terror and honest messy humour in parenthood. I loved this. --Kieron Gillen (The Wicked & The Divine; Die) A wonderful comic with a great premise that is funny and creepy. The Irish comics scene is more fucked-up than we realized. --Gerry Duggan (Dead Eyes; Marauders; Deadpool) A true original. An uncanny mix of folklore horror, modern anxiety and black humour. It tickles a funnybone but by book's end, may leave another body part broken. --Declan Shalvey (Bog Bodies; Savagetown; Moon Knight) A blood-curdling blast of magical realism, perfect for parents and demonic entities in this world and the next. --Eoin Colfer (Artemis Fowl; High Fire; Illegal) One of my favorite first issues ever. So full of fun, great characters and beautiful art. You will love it. --Brian Lynch (Secret Life Of Pets; Monster Motors) Nick brought us robots and sadness with his Transformers work, now he brings us Rentaghost for a new generation with roughly the same amount of skill. --John Allison (Giant Days; Steeple)
