Critics Review
“A terrifying delight, and a must-read.” —Monkeys Fighting Robots
“Scarenthood delivers some good old-fashioned horror comic with a perfect new school twist.” —Comics Bookcase
“Scarenthood works on several levels, but what makes it really stand out is how real the scares are. It hits on genuine fears that every parent has had and then adds a supernatural mystery to the mix to turn it right up to eleven.” —Horror DNA
“A truly unique book perfect for horror fans but equally engaging for those who are new to the genre, with a refreshing Irish spin that energizes the cast with remarkable humanity.” —Weird Science
“One of the best new spooky comics of 2020.” —SyFy
“Brutally funny horror that finds genuine terror and honest messy humour in parenthood. I loved this.” —Kieron Gillen (The Wicked & The Divine; Die)
“A wonderful comic with a great premise that is funny and creepy. The Irish comics scene is more fucked-up than we realized.” —Gerry Duggan (Dead Eyes; Marauders; Deadpool)
“A true original. An uncanny mix of folklore horror, modern anxiety and black humour. It tickles a funnybone but by book’s end, may leave another body part broken.” —Declan Shalvey (Bog Bodies; Savagetown; Moon Knight)
“A blood-curdling blast of magical realism, perfect for parents and demonic entities in this world and the next.” —Eoin Colfer (Artemis Fowl; High Fire; Illegal)
“One of my favorite first issues ever. So full of fun, great characters and beautiful art. You will love it.” —Brian Lynch (Secret Life Of Pets; Monster Motors)
“Nick brought us robots and sadness with his Transformers work, now he brings us Rentaghost for a new generation with roughly the same amount of skill.” —John Allison (Giant Days; Steeple)
