Happy Halloween! Last day for the October Scary Book Reviews. You know what’s a really scary topic? Cannibals!

DC Rebirth continues to delight as issue 8 makes its grand debut in the art of action. Seems like all of our characters are battling it out: Cyborg fighting Killgore, the Justice League fighting fear itself, all while Gotham is being overrun by monsters.
