A very strong comic. We know, as readers, that things won't turn out like the main character is supposing but it takes real skill to then STILL surprise the reader with HOW bad it gets. I thought I had it figured out but -NOPE lol
I liked how you quickly altered the tone for that as well. You hit all the hallmarks of a good horror story so well, from establishing the pacing of the "mundane" to the frantic terror of the rising action.
Haha, this was actually an accompanying piece to a contextual thesis I wrote about cosmic horror so there was a LOT of research involved, I'm glad it paid off to be a cohesive piece! I'd love to dabble in horror again
Loved the theme of a non-believer priest doing exorcisms! The pacing of the story and the art style are very nice as well. The spirit/demon was awesome but the thing that truly made a shiver run down my spine were those panels where I didn’t know if William was going to be paid or not like IS OUR MAN WILLIAM GOING HOME EMPTY HANDED AFTER GOING THROUGH ALL THAT??? *cries*
oh my gosh thank you for the lovely comment... HAHAHA that was an afterthought because i was like hey wait... I can't just let him experience the Horrors and not even get PAID for it!!!

That would have been the nail in the coffin to be honest! The fear of not getting paid is a Horror we all can relate to :D
