    Eagerly anticipated, I enjoyed this story in the moment. After the last page, however, and I started contemplating the greater mystery, I'm not sure I have faith in this total story arc. Who dumps a body in a cemetery? That seems rather... amateurish. How many mysteries can take place *in* the cemetery? The art was lovely, the story very well paced for the medium, but I'm still a little skeptical where this one is going.

    A quick, interesting origin story. While an amnesiac whose entire murder/ triller mystery takes place in and around a cemetery isn't exactly plausible, neither are ghosts and magic. I like where this is going, I'm looking forward to following this story.
