I just did a quick forum search for Coffin Hill and although it was mentioned briefly a few times but it totally needs its own thread for sure!
With that said I absolutely love this book! With all of the titles that I read, most of them are good. I get entertainment, a continuing story and great art. Coffin Hill to me is one of those stand out books that I get super excited to read each month. The story is so intriguing, the art is phenomenal which is further enhanced by its amazing colors. To me its the total package. One of those comics that gets me giddy and I cant wait to see where it goes. And the fact that there is something so sensual about the female characters. I get totally pulled into their world which doesnt always happen in every title we read monthly. What do some other people think?

Good call on making this thread. I'm very satisfied with this book! I'm really enjoying delving into this universe and the flashbacks and reveals have been a positive thing for me, which is fairly rare.

I picked up the first issue, loved the artwork, but the story didn't really grab me and wasn't my sort of thing. Might wait until the first trade and see what's being said about it then.

I'm really digging this book too. Its more a mystery tale than horror IMO, which I'm really liking that aspect. This book paired very well with American Horror Story: Coven.

What do you guys think about the most recent issue and the wrap up of the first arc? I thought issue #6 was a little too fast paced with not enough time to allow the build up to "the Harvest". It made the cliffhanger have less of an impact because of how fast the issue moved and got you even more confused at the end.

I have to agree that the end of the arc was too fast paced. I do think it was a good read, but it executed too quickly and was so far from the tone of the rest of the story it didn't even really feel like the same book.

Got the trade this week after trying to read the single issues a couple of months ago. I'm still not completely sold on the story but the 7th issue was great for giving backstory in a oneshot. I hope the pacing gets better in the second arc.
