I received an Advance Reader Copy of the first 48 pages of this book in exchange for an honest review from Netgalley. It is scheduled to be published on February 01, 2022. Because this was only a sample and not the whole book it is difficult to give a rating. I would definitely be interested in reading the story in its entirety. The idea of saving people through their dreams is very intriguing.

I received an Advance Reader Copy of the first 48 pages of this book (will be 100+ total) in exchange for an honest review from Netgalley. It is scheduled to be published on February 01, 2022.

While I only got to read the first 48 pages, I really enjoyed The Nightmare Brigade #1: The Case of The Girl from Deja Vu. The art is interesting (in a good way), the storyline is great (essentially nightmare chasers/solvers? Hello, that's great!), and I love that there is a disabled character represented.

I see this having the potential to get spookier and spookier as time goes on, and I love that. Not going to spoil anything, but obviously there is a much larger problem at hand here, and that will help to tie what I'm assuming will be a bunch of mini-stories together.

4 solid stars!

This was a cute short read. The concept of kids who save others in their nightmares is brilliant. I’m enjoying how not only are Tristan and Esteban helping others to cope and find themselves, but Esteban is figuring out who he is as well. The structure of the story is well thought out and the illustrations are just the right amount of creepy for this story line. The way that the illustrator uses the sharp curves and edges helps to set the mood for the story. I loved how this was just a preview and not the whole thing, but it ended on a great cliff hanger.
