Witches and Florida are the peanut butter andchocolate that have been missing from comics (and my life). If you're lookingfor a horror book that will grab you from page one and won't let go, if you'relooking for a comic oozing with topical, all-too-real nightmares, or if you'rejust looking for a rippin' yarn-pre-order Redlands at your local comicshop today." -Robbie Thompson

"Eisner Award-winning colorist Bellaire's debutwriting effort is a stellar feminist occult horror comic... The spine-tinglingadventure is filled with examples of sexual harassment, such as a principalpropositioning one of his female students for sex, adding emotional terror tothe spooky mix. Monsters abound, but even the supernatural characters evokehumanity and empathy. Del Rey's fine-lined watercolor-style art makes even gorelook gorgeous and sets an ominous mood which elevates the suspense. This darkcampfire tale is both politically relevant and terrifying." -PublishersWeekly
