My rating: 4 of 5 stars
A dark and creepy tale of Eve a self destructive 15 year old, who messes around with dark magic not really understanding what she is capable of. Waking after a night of witchcraft she finds herself covered in blood and a friend short. Years later she is a cop in Boston who has just cracked a serial killer case, when she is gunned down. After she is released from hospital and heads home to get away from the press, only to discover that night years ago has started something that has been taking victims ever since and its been waiting for her to come home.
The main character is not really likable, she is a spoilt rich teen who has never really grown up and keeps mouthing off to everyone she comes into contact with, but I guess her hearts in the right place and she is trying to set things right.
I like a good legend and the Coffin Witch legend is interesting spanning decades, right back to the first witch to leave Salem.
The art is fantastic and helps to really build the aura and set the scene for the story.
The character design is brilliant, bringing a lot of punk into their clothing and the detail of the tattoo designs is wonderful.
The crows are beautiful and present throughout the comic.
The sketch pages at the back are a nice touch.
