I'm so happy that you guys are reviewing some of the MPD Psycho books. This series rocks, its so awesome and the artwork is fantastic. Plus the violence Very Happy. It's cool that this series is getting some fantastic scores.

It was a pleasure to note that, with the exception of the nude shocker in the beginning, volume six thankfully dials down the extremes of violence a few notches. While an up close and personal exploration of the contents of a woman's skull or a man's abdomen is admittedly a pretty neat trick, any master of the horror genre can tell you that the scariest thing in the world is that which is not shown. Nothing we see on the page can ever frighten us as much as what we see only in our minds' eye, and in this volume, the worst of all possible outcomes is left just over the horizon. Bravo.
Though I love a lot of violence, I totally agree with what the reviewer is saying.

Darkhorse knows what they are doing, and there are doing a fantastic job with this series. But the next volume is even better in my opinion, and continues to enhance the vibe of "seeing only in our minds' eye".
