I went in intrigued, I was initially not necessarily feeling the art and the tone, but a couple of pages into the first issue I was hooked and the vibes were immaculate. This is what if Tia and Tamara from Sister Sister were Emily Strange and Sabrina the Teenage Witch with a little Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Cate and Kate are in the business of dealing with supernatural fuckery, specialising in reclaiming lost souls from The Pit and giving a demon or two a kicking for good measure. Their mum sold their soul when they were kids (family, amirite?!) or rather Cate's soul that took on a rebellious life of its own, Kate.

That's the premise. The style is classic comic in the tradition of Archie, Betty, Veronica, and Sabrina with a modern twist, which suits the irreverent and infectiously fun tone perfectly. They pop in and out of hell (and demon orifices [orifi?]), angels rain from the sky, shadows are going to wipe out all life. All standard fare for the teen spoopy storytime, but there's just something special and fun about the Exorsisters style.

This really is a testament to crafting something new and fun from familar parts. I absolutely need to read more!… (plus d'informations)
