So these two FBI agents walk into a warehouse… Special Agents Shaw and McGregor handle the routine cases nowadays, which is just the way Shaw likes it. She’s pushing 40, a borderline burnout, the ghastly memories of her last investigation still clinging like shadows. McGregor is younger, more dedicated, hanging onto some measure of idealism whatever the world might throw at him. When two fellow agents go missing inside a Long Beach warehouse, Shaw and McGregor are sent to investigate. But what they find waiting is far from routine, as the local police have already discovered to their cost. Before the night is out, our heroes will encounter terror beyond their most appalling nightmares―in a place where the night may never end at all. A new kind of horror story for modern America, written by Garth Ennis (‘Preacher’, ‘The Boys’, ‘Crossed’) and drawn by Goran Sudžuka (‘Y: The Last Man’, ‘Hellblazer’)

This graphic novel was so confusing. The art style was interesting, maybe too dark at times, but I could see what was going on. My issue was the plot jumped around like crazy. It took two “flashback” scenes to realize they were actually flashbacks. I genuinely thought my copy from NetGalley was out of order, especially because there was one page at about the 40-ish mark where there were speech bubbles but the words were missing. From what I understand of the plot, two detectives are investigating a mall shooting and the shooter was a previous witness who had absolutely no reason to go homicidal. The detectives then get called out to a warehouse where two other detectives went in to investigate and never came out. I want to say the story has something to do with atoning for your sins or dealing with demons? I ended up skimming it after the 50-60 page mark. I’m one who will read the ending of a book before I’ve even started it. I enjoy spoilers sometimes, helps me get my excitement up as I read the book. After skimming this graphic novel and reading through the end I was none-the-wiser to what the heck was going on. This story definitely had potential and if it has been done right I think I would have really enjoyed it.
