Shane Perry's Reviews > Hillbilly, Volume 1

Maybe I'm biased because of how much I love The Goon, but I found this to be a worthy companion. Eric Powell takes things to the Appalachian mountains, where we meet a blind hillbilly who carries Satan's meat cleaver and uses it to help him fight witches and other monsters. Hillbilly takes a lot of humor and creatures (and even a character) like what we see in The Goon and uses them in really fun ways. I think the only major problem I had was that each issue was just a vignette of sorts, making this first volume not really have an over-arching story.
