Reading Challenges: Finishing the Series

“Torpedo” Lou Pirlo thought his troubles might be over when he and his new girl, Delia, hopped a boxcar headed to New Orleans—as far and fast as they could get away from the hillbillies in Appalachia and the Mafia killers in New York City. But trouble has a habit of sticking to Lou… and trouble ain’t all that’s stuck to Lou. See, Lou got bit by a werewolf, and now the most deadly monster hunter on Earth will stop at nothing to put this dog down. The hit horror/crime series that Nerdist called “damn near perfect” is back from the creative team behind the seminal crime drama 100 Bullets! Also reprinting variant covers from GABRIEL BÁ, FÁBIO MOON, RAFAEL ALBUQUERQUE, GRAMPÁ, and JORGE ZAFFINO! Collects MOONSHINE #7-12

I read the first trade in this series back when it published I think and somehow forgot about it. I was going back through my records and decided to finish the series. The second volume moves the story forward but not by much. I wanted to see a bit more movement from the characters. It felt like after the first volume, this one got stuck a bit…

*The hit supernatural gangster story continues! Delia is on a quest to rid Lou Pirlo of his werewolf curse, and along the way, she enlists the help of two witches who come at a high price. Lou is a resourceful man, willing to do whatever it takes to pay, but when you’ve got no soul left to sell, bad things are going to happen.

Thankfully this next volume changes locale and amps up the story. We get to meet some new characters and learn more about Lou while dealing with the aftermath in Virginia. I’m now actually excited to see where this story goes next. I foresee more complications with Tempest leaving the mountains and the altercation with Jean Baptiste at the end of this volume.
