In my review for the first one, I didn't know where the story was going, and I wasn't a fan of the art. Unfortunately, neither the story nor the art improved over the next five issues.
Kelly Jones, a veteran of comics, is basically a poor man's Berni Wrightson. He draws in a somewhat similar manner, but where Wrightson had the control and the chops to make damn near every pen and brush stroke magical, Jones seems to flail around and do his best to make it all look interesting, but it never quite gels. Daphne Byrne herself seems to change appearance from panel to panel, with Jones never really settling on a basic look for her face.
And the story commits the cardinal sin for all storytelling, and horror in particular: it's both boring and derivative. It's basically Rosemary's Baby, a hundred years earlier, with some other elements in there. In fact, in my reading of this, it felt like Marks and Jones didn't actually settle on that final theme until a few issues in. It felt half-baked.
And so, we have the first true failure of the Hill House brand. ( )
