Hack/Slash: Back to School #2 Review

Hack/Slash: Back to School #2 Review – Cassie Hack has her first day at Hunters for Hire & Darla Ritz’s Academy for Girls in Hack/Slash: Back to School #2.

The miniseries deftly mixes comedy and brutal horror as Cassie, along with classmates Boo and Sam, hunt for a killer who slices their victims in half, leaving horribly divided corpses (from head to toe) in their wake. It’s another terrifying, fun and fantastic issue of the miniseries. Continue reading Hack/Slash: Back to School #2 Review
