I wasn't impressed with the art but I liked the story. It gives you a good look at how the Winchester boys got to where they are at the start of the tv show.
A must read! August 15, 2008

If you have any curiosity at all about John Winchester, this is a great read! This graphic novel has great illustrations and delves into a little of the enigma that is John Winchester. You also get a little look into the boys(Dean and Sam) upbringing, but this is about Papa John.
Highly recommended for the true Supernatural connaisseur!

Just finished this TPB, and I enjoyed it quite a bit. I'm never thrilled by Mignola-esque artwork, but I am betting that it actually served a purpose: to avoid licensing the likenesses of the actors. That aside, the story is quite good with many different creepy monsters/tones/settings. I'm betting that hard core fans of the show will dig it, and I bet you could enjoy it even if you have never watched the show. With so few horror comics out there on a regular basis... it's a nice break from the spandex monotony. Overall, a welcome addition to the SUPERNATURAL canon! Also recommended: Supernatural: Nevermore (Supernatural) (I have yet to read Witches Canyon, but my wife enjoyed it.) Supernatural: Witch's Canyon (Supernatural)
