Monsters are fake news, right? That’s what many of the readers of the tabloid rag the Yellow Stringer think, but the truth is more frightening than anyone could possibly know.
With front page stories like the demon baby born in an Iowa hospital or the ghost that mysteriously haunts cheerleaders from a small West Virginia town, most people assume that the articles in this national newspaper are sensationalist entertainment for bored shoppers waiting at checkout. However, these stories are real, and the journalists who report on them get the scoop despite the danger they find themselves in.

Oct 10, 2022Each chapter of this volume contains a different adventure. The first one is a bit long, but all the others are pretty short and a little disjointed. The cases are slightly related to one another, and the overall story of what's happening to Naomi and Tony is clearly sequential, but the threads tying everything together are a little loose. Some of the dialogue is a little choppy as well. Despite these setbacks, there is some solid foundational character work done by our authors. Both Tony and Naomi have some compelling backstories and have already started to take shape as full people within this first volume. If some of the cases would be fleshed out a bit more, this series has great potential to appeal to fans of the long-running Case Closed or find a foothold in a genre of manga that isn't overly written at the moment.
