  Things are looking grim for this small family, as they desperately try and find a way out of this town and away from these mysterious hooded figures. I really enjoy the unexpected developments that keep popping up in this story, reminding me that this isn't your typical creepy cult. These guys are bad news, and I like it! I'm looking forward to third issue and seeing how these events will unfold for this scared and vulnerable family. Read Full Review

  Winnebago Graveyard is a brilliantly crafted, artistic beauty. It may not be the most original of idea's but it's look is like nothing else currently on the shelf. Read Full Review

  If you are anything like me you will be hopping from foot to foot waiting for issue #3 just to see what will happen with that massive cliffhanger we got served this time around. What a great summertime read! Read Full Review

  Winnebago Graveyard is one of very few mini-series I wish were ongoing, though I am intrigued to learn how this team will fit a conclusion to this multi-layered story within the next two issues. Niles and Sampson are a fantastic, horrible, storytelling team. The story and art interact and intertwine to create one of the most unnerving books on the rack. Read Full Review

  Winnebago Graveyard isn't about trying to scare you, it's about making you feel so wholly uncomfortable you can't see your own world right anymore. Read Full Review

  What this issue lacks in words, it more than makes up for in art. Read Full Review

  I love horror comics so trust me when I say that Winnebago Graveyard is a great one. The second issue proves that this series is living up to it's great promise. And it comes complete with two essays on Satanism in the real world at the end! How many comics out there are trying to thrill, scare, and educate? Read Full Review

  The art in this book is all over the place but because this book has a slow burn feel the art is relied upon to help shape this story, which Sampson is handling very well. Niles, who gave us 30 Days of Night, will give us another great issue in book number 3 and I know that the conclusion of this mini-series will not be a disappointment. Read Full Review

  For me, horror comics are all about mood and character. And while the latter may be a sorely lacking for the time being, the former is being executed to absolute perfection, with a genuinely unsettling aesthetic and an willfully unconventional style. Unfortunately, as striking as Sampsons artwork undoubtedly is, theres no getting away from the fact that Winnebago Graveyard still only feels like half a story. Read Full Review

  Winnebago Graveyard is nothing more than a typical horror movie idiot plot where if the main characters weren't such idiots, the event would never have occurred. Read Full Review

  Winnebago Graveyard is a book that, in my opinion, had a lot of potential (and a great fucking title). And I think it still might have some potential, although I can't imagine that I will ever come back to it again to find out. It's not a book for me. And that's fine. Maybe it is a book for you. And that's also fine. Actually that's great. I'm glad and happy and all that. For me, though, if I need a creepy satanic cult fix, I'll find it elsewhere. Read Full Review

  For those more tolerant of Sampson's art style, this is a sleep with the nightlight on kind of tale, but it's not going to be for everyone. Read Full Review
