BAD RECEPTION TP

(W) Juan Doe (A) Juan Doe (CA) Juan Doe

It's the celebrity wedding of the century, set in an undisclosed, remote location, with no access to wifi, cell phone reception or the outside world. But the dream wedding becomes a nightmare when, one by one, the guests are brutally slaughtered by a mysterious killer who brands his vic-tims with a hashtag. BAD RECEPTION is a searing horror story that doubles as a topical, satirical critique on society's obsession with technology, social media and the cult of celebrity. Written and drawn by After-Shock's very own Juan Doe (DARK ARK, AMERICAN MONSTER, WORLD READER)! This collection contains the entire series, issues #1-5. "...fantastic character designs, a really good setting, some gorgeous colorwork, and a real sense of self and perso NAlity...It's a very easy recommendation in collected form as once the mystery and the murders start going on, you're going to want a lot more of it very quickly." - The Fan-dom Post
