This has been sitting on my To Be Read list for weeks, but October seemed like the perfect time to finally dive into a fresh slasher story. In It Killed Everyone But Me, we meet a Final Girl, Sutton, decades after the violent tragedy she survived. She’s the mom of a teenager now, works in real estate and is going through all the motions of a “normal” life. But when someone approaches her about a new case that appears to have similarities to hers, Sutton is forced to revisit her past. “This story is about somebody literally burying their trauma away and ignoring it and then having to dig it up 30 years later and deal with it,” writer Ryan Parrott said in a recent interview with AIPT. He added that it is, “in some ways, a cautionary tale about how you can’t just pretend something didn’t happen and be OK.”

This first issue is a strong start to the series, and leaves you hungry for more. There’s a lot we still don’t know — like what really happened back then, when all of Sutton’s friends were killed during a weekend getaway.
