review:

A fun mashup of good girl spy group Danger Girl and the wisecracking survivor of the Evil Dead movies, Ash. When Abby Chase of Danger Girl finds a missing page from the Necronomicon and recites some words, all hell, literally, starts to break loose. Ash has experience with the book and steps in to help. It doesn't help that he's been arrested for assaulting people that he thought were deadites.



Recovering the book and the missing page are part of an evil plan by a criminal mastermind, who wants to create an undead army of deadites. The girls of Danger Girl and Ash have other plans and have to cut through, literally, an entire undead army. How they do this is clever and quite disgusting.



Writing by Andy Hartnell captures Ash's smartass comments and gives some background to some of the Danger Girl team for those not as familiar. Art by Chris Bolson is good, with art reminiscent of some of the early Danger Girl issues by J. Scott Campbell. J. Scott Campbell steps in for the cover as well as some of the alternate covers included in the cover gallery at the back of the book.
