“So, here we are. A future that isn’t some primal scream of horror, but a billion little sighs. A fucking shrug.” When looking through the upcoming Dark Horse releases, several things about this issue caught my eye: the cover, obviously.

“…I’ve been eating away at her for two entire years and now there’s nothing left at all. …do you want to see what I really look like?” Keep reading for a review of The Magic Order 4, issue #2. Warning, some spoilers below. I said it last month and I’ll say it again: being a
