Too SHORT!
Joe, I really liked the stories, but why so short? I looked at a volume the other day, and decided if it's as short as the other, it's not worth the money. Perhaps you could sell each storyline as a collectors set? That I would buy. To be able to read the collection at once, and, (hoorah!) I would be ready to buy the next set. Thank you for your time.
PS please tell your dad,Stephen, thank you for the noises in the night, .the whispers in my ear , and the shadows walking around in the night! Donna

A real TEASER!
First of all, there's only previews of three of the five comic series which was a bit disappointing. Secondly, I thought the artwork was lacking. And lastly, I should never have downloaded this sampler because now, even though I don't intend to purchase the rest of the comics, I'm absolutely ITCHING to find out what's about to happen next!

Different
I wasn't sure if I would like the stories as I am into true crime and ghost stories but I wanted to give something else a try .. I'm glad I did I enjoyed the stories although kind of weird but weird is good ..

Great
I’ve never been into comics but this looks good, it shouldn’t hurt to try, or would it? Need three words

Basketful of Heads #1 is the first issue in a new miniseries from DC Comics. The series is going to run for a total of six issues and is one of the darker series—falling solidly under their new Black Label.
June Branch was a happy and outgoing girl before her life changed forever. Before that day, she had her whole life ahead of her. But that was before four deranged criminals invaded her space and took her boyfriend hostage. The first issue of this harrowing series will introduce us to June and her life before that all went down. As you can probably tell from the cover alone, this series promises to be delightfully dark and dangerous. I know I certainly don’t envy June or the journey she’s about to embark on.
