I recall a scene in which a man or two are trying to get her to dance and drink like the rest at the party. Instead Having re-read this, I came to a new-found conclusion. Instead of leaving her alone and fucking off like she demanded, they press and she gives in, apparently assuming they won't drug her drink.
She asks for ice tea of some kind and is instead given apparently a powerful drink of vodka. She is eventually so intoxicated that she gives in to the hyper-sexualized dance atmosphere and for some reason the creeps from earlier don't show up.
Instead, she kisses another very intoxicated woman, and dances with a guy. It's presented as if it's something refreshing for her, to 'give in' to the desire for 'fun' and so on. She is eventually able to get back in the game and be rescued by her gentle giant friend. They walk off into the sunset and she laments that she can't be normal and do normal things, which in the writer's mind amount to enjoying sexual violence.
The sad thing is, this comic and the events, including the parody of a pornographic company based on 'spring break' events, covers some of the sick realities of the environment. Make no mistake, this kind of scene isn't rare. It is all too common, and the author took a disgusting position in presenting nonconsent and drugging women as if it's a casual and 'fun' experience he thinks women should desire. This comic is oppressive and disturbing, and he is a sociopath.
Drugging anyone in such a way and with such violent intentions, or advocating for such a thing, must be an offense society eliminates with overwhelming united effort. Disrespecting a person's space with the desire to satisfy masturbatory fantasies of exploitation, coercion, and violence must be destroyed by a powerful force of liberation.
Jul 31, Earline rated it it was amazing Recommends it for: horror and skottie young fans. Shelves: horror , series , comics , badasses. I've collected a few of the issues of this series but it's great to find them collected in a trade. This series is great for any horror comic and slasher fans.
Super funny and the fight scenes are really badass. I especially liked the last story that takes place at a comic-con with Steve Niles and Skottie Young.

Cassie Hack grew up in western Wisconsin, daughter of an eccentric dinner lady. Her mother watched as Cassie was bullied through school until she could take no more, students started to disappear and were amusingly served up with salad and fries. When confronted mother Hack committed suicide by plunging her head into a boiling pot of gravy leaving Cassie an orphan.
In a new school Cassie is bullied again and students start to disappear, her mother has returned as a vengeful slasher from the grav Cassie Hack grew up in western Wisconsin, daughter of an eccentric dinner lady.
In a new school Cassie is bullied again and students start to disappear, her mother has returned as a vengeful slasher from the grave. Cassie hunts down and kills her mother and finding it impossible to settle into anything approaching a normal life she becomes a hunter of killers. Joined by her sidekick Vlad who she meets along the way, a gentle giant with the biggest knife you've ever seen and the perfect foil for Cassie.
Together they scour the newspapers for brutal unsolved killings and slashers aplenty to hunt and kill. If you like the slasher movies from the 80's Halloween, Nightmare on Elm street, Friday 13th and Childs Play this pays worthy homage to the genre and doesn't take itself too seriously.
Nov 26, Sabra Embury rated it liked it Shelves: graphic-novels. Silmilar to the premise of HBO's Dexter, Cassie Hack stems from the psychotic bloodline of her serial killing lunch lady mom. Choosing the path of "good" versus "evil" Cassie hunts down a never ending queue of serial killing monsters in the tradition of Buffy the Vampire Slayer vigilantism; along with her grotesque-giant-with-a-heart-of-gold partner, Vlad, ax-wielding psychos are decimated with finesse, by a hot brunette in a mini skirt and mesh.
Apr 30, Thomas rated it it was ok Shelves: comics. This is a pretty dumb comic. There's absolutely no attempt at actually making the book scary, or even engaging. The idea is silly, but that doesn't mean the story has to be approached with zero tension. Characters were about as one dimensional as pro wrestlers. The final story takes place at a comic convention, with LOTS of shout outs to other horror comic creators. It was at this point I checked out entirely.
I hate all that wink wink shit that shows up too often in the horror genre. Nov 04, Michelle Baribeau Milton added it. Dec 04, Douglas Castagna rated it it was amazing.
Excellent comic with the ultimate final girl and her little friend. A scantily clad goth girl and her Jason like friend go on a mission killing slashers, both living and unread ones. Loads of violence, and great art, as well as a good, and compelling story. Mar 09, Miranda rated it liked it. Love the idea and villains, but this had way too much fan service for me to really love it. It was embarrassing to read on the bus. The art in the first issue is really detailed and nice, then drops in quality for the rest of the book.
Oct 16, Arthur rated it liked it. I was really expecting to like this because, like, horror Jul 24, Gav rated it really liked it. Silly idea but quite dark and very well executed. Also as the story progressed I actually found myself engaging with some of the characters. It was a lot of fun to read. Genuinely funny at times. Like all horror it was slightly exploitative in its imagery but it felt like this was overtly done for the humour rather that for a more nefarious purpose.
It was funny, fast moving and action packed. It had a slasher movie vibe which is what it needed. I'll keep reading. May 06, John rated it it was amazing Shelves: read-in , reviewed , graphic-novels. Tim Seeley was signing his books at my local comic shop on Free Comic Book Day, and having been of fan of his series Revival , I thought I'd give this a try. Admittedly, I was a bit squeamish and skeptical at first, but this turned out to be a great read.
The premise here is that Cassie Hack is the offspring of a demented serial killer or "slasher" and devotes here life to hunting down and eliminating other slashers, with the help of a large green creature called Vlad. Two things impressed me most Tim Seeley was signing his books at my local comic shop on Free Comic Book Day, and having been of fan of his series Revival , I thought I'd give this a try.
Two things impressed me most about this series. The first was the wonderful sense of humor and parody employed here. Given the subject, in other hands this could be a grim, depressing and overly gory book. Instead Seeley makes the proceedings as light as possible with some very sharp pardon the pun comedy. One story pokes fun at the idiocy of "Girls Gone Wild" videos, while another takes place at a comic con where comic writers Steve Niles and Robert Kirkman fall victim to a slasher.
The second thing was how nutty and inventive the actual slashers were. Seeley uses classic slashers from the s like Jason and Freddy as springboards for his own much more over-the-top villains, and he gives them very clever backstories for the most part. The art in the first story "Euthanized" is dark and detailed, which I think tamped down some of the humor here, but the other two stories are done in a simpler style reminiscent of Japanese anime which helped heighten the absurd goings-on.
Also, for a comic about mad slashers, the stories are far less gory than I expected, which for me is a good thing. A surprisingly fun, offbeat book and I will seek out more volumes in the series.
Cassie Hack is a survivor. The art style for this issue is fun and colorful, the story is very tongue-in-cheek, and the action is bloody good. Short but sweet, this issue has a little something for everyone who reads it. Entry Wound sets the mood aptly. Cassie and her companion Vlad arrive in the middle of bufu nowhere on their seasonal search for self-resurrecting slashers with a grudge and just so happens to come across a small hamlet where such a problem presented itself.
The story is short, sweet, and to the point. They even managed to sneak in a panel or two of Seeley's other literary work, Lovebunny and Mr. Hell , so there is even a tiny two for one deal with this issue. The second issue for Land of Lost Toys also delves deeper into the history of Vlad, which depending on what issues a reader has already partaken in, may be the first time they have come across his tragic history.
Cassie and Vlad arrive at the beach after reports of gruesome killings of teenagers on spring break reach them. The issue does an excellent job of "humanizing" Cassie, who before this issue mostly only seemed concerned with the hunting and killing of slashers and having little to no other interest or inclination to make friends outside of Vlad - and to top it off, there are some truly shocking twists present here that will most likely take readers by surprise.
While there had been hints and parts of his past dropped here and there, as evidenced in the above issue, they were usually fed to up a panel or three at a time. This is the first time an entire issue was dedicated to Vlad's past, and it was well worth the wait. Written by Tini Howard.
