To get it out of the way the art is pretty great. The premise of our story is it's 1666 in England and zombies have popped up. This premise is ridiculous and thankfully it doesn't take itself too seriously.

This volume contains two arcs: 1666 and Brethren of the Night. BotN has a much stronger story. It keeps it light and whacky and doesn't try to do too much. 1666 is a bit of a mess. Several times it reads like someone has just ripped out a couple of pages of the book. And you're left scratching your head trying to figure what just happened. I find stuff like this inexcusable.

1666: 2.5 stars
BotN: 4 stars
