Friends don't let friends make a deals with demons, and this story is about the consequences of making a deal with a demon to fix the deal with a demon your friend made.
This book had it's high points, including a point that so poignantly depicted the absolute silence that was being being inflicted, that I could FEEL IT. But there were other points where it felt like it was just going through the motions to get to these point where it shined.
The ending ended up feeling like one of those motions, not actually being a point where it shined.

This was fantastic. Who doesn't want to read a graphic novel about a badass girl band that can also use magic?? I loved all the girls and reading this story was just such a blast! Highly recommend to everyone!

As soon as I saw 'punk rock witches' in the blurb, I knew I had to read this. AND I LOVED IT! Firstly: the art! I love it so much, it's so wild and full of energy that really matches the vibe of these witches. I also love how magic works in this; magic comes from something one's unnaturally good at, like music for these characters, and there are SpellSongs too, for summoning crowds and whatnot. This graphic novel is funny too! Our narrator, Alice (also the leader of Black Cat Social Club), is so sarcastic, funny and believable that I immediately fell in love with her. And of course, there's good ol' Stan and Peter, dumbass demons #1 & 2. It's so fun to read something like this that balances humor and a literal monster apocalypse and I really found it hard to put it down.
What brought my rating down from 5 stars is that it all happened too quickly. Maybe it'll work as a novel, but the climax didn't really feel like one, and there were too little details. The art is awesome by the way, kudos to the artists, and the monster apocalypse scenes were so good! I think that's it, really. I hope there would be a second comic, or maybe more under the BCSC universe. I'd read all of them.
Thank you NetGalley and Humanoids Inc. for the eARC!

I thought the story was fun. Nothing lifechanging, but still a fun read. The art really made this for me.

Thanks NetGalley and Humanoids, Inc for access to this arc!
4/5 stars
This was silly, colourful, quick read. Some parts were a bit hard to read, but the art style was really cool. The tongue in cheek shot at witches and rock music selling their souls but sticking it to them in the end was pretty funny.
