Erika (17789 KP) rated Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Vol 1: The Crucible in Books

Feb 11, 2018

First, I need to say, I have a serious problem with how long it took for all of the issues contained in this book to come out. The first issues did so well, then there was a long hiatus. I love Archie Comics, but it was a serious misstep by them.
Anyway, Chilling Adventure of Sabrina is a horror comic, and nothing like the more recent Sabrina stories. It's more like the first years of Sabrina, where she would torture mortals and all of that. It's a darker comic, and yeah, some of it is disturbing, but it's worth a read. I love how Betty and Veronica make a cameo as witches.

The over the top Satanic Witch storyline (3 more)

Great plot!

I really liked the art

I have several issues with it (see below) and I still love it too much to give it less than 10 bombs

It needed some spell checking. Several errors in the writing. (3 more)

The Witches (especially Sabrina’s Aunts) lack substance. I hope that will change as the series develops.

These ideas of Satanic Witches being cannibals and murderers and Satan being conjured in the woods is fun at first, but it seems so irresponsible to revert back to the ideas that created Satanic Panic.

The aunts are cannibals. Fine I guess, but why?

It’s like EC Comics had a baby with the Archie Universe

I have the advantage of not having read the comics, so I was able to go into this with fresh eyes and appreciate it on its own merits, and I'm so glad I gave it a shot. What a great fucking show. It's dark, it's cynical, it's funny and it's smart. Elizabeth Shue is terrific (but when isn't she?). Anthony Starr's Homelander is absolutely mesmerizing in a messed up way; he's a terrible, horrible person and everything he does is insanely wrong - but I couldn't look away. The societal commentary is on point. Really a very well done show in every respect. Can't wait to see what they do with season 2!

I am Groot. I am Groot. I am Groot.

I am Groot,

We are Groot.

Initially viewed as one of the riskier entries into mnarvel's (then) expanding cinematic universe starring, as it did, a talking raccoon and a talking tree and taking its inspiration form one of the lesser-known Marvel comics (admit it, who'd heard of them prior to this film? Unlike, say, Captain America?) this proved to be one of its biggest hits and made a star of Chris Pratt (as Peter Quill, aka StarLord), helped - in no small part - by a killer soundtrack, a bit of comedic leanings and - of course - by the brilliant Groot!

Not quite as good as Baby Groot from the sequel, though ...
