Nice comic, great detail in each drawing. Very interesting story. I loved the twist at the end and had a good creepy vibe. I'm giving it a 4.25 stars a little flat in the beginning but started to get better and kept my attention in part 2. I would love to read more from Scott Snyder.

Received as an ARC from Netgalley:

THIS WAS HORRIFYING. It is really rare that a horror comic actually manages to disturb me nowadays, but this one definitely did. The art combined with the central idea was fantastic.

Scott Snyder is such a skilled horror writer.

Thank you to Netgalley for a copy for an honest review

I really enjoyed it and would highly recommend and I can’t wait to buy a copy for myself 🙂

Rating 4 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This one blew my mind!!

For all the horror enthusiasts like me, keep your eye out for Dark Spaces: Dungeon. I wouldn’t be surprised if it would be adapted for tv.

A fascinating serial killer has kept agent Madoc in one of his unique dungeons for years as a child. We get Madoc’s backstory through flashbacks and from what he tells his new “partner” and we see him in action on the job. You can only root for him to get his revenge, planning it is what kept him alive down there.

Tyler, a retired programmer, finds a hatch in a forest and this leads to Madoc finally finding the dungeon where he was kept. He was kept in the dark and was practically blind when he escaped so he was never able to find it again. But in the dungeon there’s a message for whoever enters and this leads to Tyler’s family being in danger and soon even worse.. Madoc is taken off the case for endangering a civilian but Madoc and Tyler are a dream team and they keep chasing The Keep. He supposedly has dungeons all over the country and time is running out for someone very dear to Tyler. We learn more and more about this fascinating serial killer and other interesting characters and Madoc’s worst nightmare might be yet to come.

I read this in one go and I was on the edge of my seat and completely glued to “the page” the whole time. This was done so well and I’m grateful NetGalley and IDW Publishing provided me with this arc, I had the best time reading it!

This book was somewhat a disappointment. The premise for this book was exiting and in fact, the story told in the book was interesting and refreshing, however, I think that the overall comic was not that good. There was way too much writing per page and specially on a small screen like my phone it made it really hard to read. There were certain pages that I simply had to skip because the text was unreadable. The art style was overwhelming as well with too many details that just felt like noise after a few pages.

Scott Snyder (American Vampire) returns to his Dark Spaces anthology series with “Dark Spaces: Dungeon”, a haunting crime story of a mysterious kidnapper with a penchant for torture and the people who want to bring them to justice. This book is full of beautiful illustrations and visceral storytelling. Check it out!

I was gripped at the beginning and the premise of this story is really interesting. I love horror graphic novels, and this one had cool art and managed to pull off jump scares and movement in an impressive way. However, the story moved a bit too fast for me. There were no red herrings or time to really wonder what was going on. The characters just followed the right clues the whole time and so the reveal wasn’t as effective. I would recommend it as a quick read, but it definitely deserved to be longer.

This was a fast-paced and tightly woven story! The plot moved at a relentless pace and had me guessing at every turn. The story did an excellent job of slowly unfolding the larger picture and was careful to never tip its hand. It's one of the stories that makes you want to reread it after you finish, just so you can see it again in the new light of knowing the end. Madoc was an interesting, and very well-developed character. His very personal ties to the case and the way his history is slowly revealed was compelling. The ending was also NOT what I expected it to be, and honestly made this entire story elevate itself to a 5-star story.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review!

Writer Scott Snyder has made a name for himself working with the Bat Family over at DC Comics. With the Dark Spaces anthology, he is going another step beyond.
Dark Spaces: Dungeon tells the story of Bodhi Madoc, who is investigating a man known only as The Keep. He kept Bodhi prisoner in a torture chamber as a child. Until he eventually escaped.
The story here is on point for dark and moody. The artwork was very much on point for a story like this.
I’m looking forward to the next installment of the Dark Spaces Anthology.

Very wonderful. I really loved it. It is my favorite genre. The story will draw you in from the beginning and you will feel excited when you finish it. The events in it are very interesting, and the drawing style was wonderful and expressive. I did not really expect the ending in this issue. It was amazing for me.

This is a very adult graphic novel. It doesn't have any nudity but the content is meant for very mature readers. I loved it. It was dark and kept me hooked. The art is great and while I guessed the end before "the end", I was still enthralled by it. Great purchase for adult readers.

I didn’t care for this. The story was all over the place and the art was pretty crap. Just boderline unreadable.

An absolutely chilling work of horror. I read this on my phone in a dark room, and I could feel my heart racing at times. Excellent use of blacks in the art, and the characters are complex and interesting. Could have done with a couple more issues to really build the suspense: the ending felt a little rushed and out of line with the horror of the first issues. However, still an awesomely dark and distrubing read.

Ah, fucking hell, this was one of the most intense graphic novel reads in a while. Thriller-based tales are often such a hit and miss, but Scott Snyder has hit it right out of the park with this one. I want a follow-up like yesterday!

This was a nice comic over all. I liked the main character and concept but I do think some parts could be worked on. I wasn’t a huge fan of the end either and it didn’t feel satisfying even for horror. The art was also nice for most part and over all its definitely a comic I would recomend to horror fans

I really enjoyed this one. The concept of a killer that steals away folks that would be 'most missed' and puts them in awful traps but keeps them alive? Very cool. I wished there was a little more character development. I'm unsure if the story concludes or if this is just part of a larger series. I sure hope so - I feel like there are still so many more avenues to explore, especially with the reveal right at the end. Overall I give this one 4.5/5 stars.

story was too convoluted, dull and slow, art and writing were not impressive. couldn't hold my interest.

Okay so this one is a little too dark for me, but I definitely think some darker horror fans will really love this one. It was intense and a bit traumatizing with the gritty art style. The plot was intense and I NEVER saw that twist coming. I probably won't continue with the series, but I think there are a lot of people who are going to be fans of this. I definitely would recommend it, but for a very specific audience.

A fantastic, fast paced, plot twisting book. I could not recommend this enough! The art was amazing and the story was the icing on the cake.

Dark Spaces: Dungeon is Scott Snyder's second story from his curated line at IDW and I was incredibly impressed with his previous entry. I think this one is better. Dungeon is an amazing crime story that will keep you guessing right up to the twist ending. I won't lie, I was a little angry with the way Snyder left it, but in the best way. I'll certainly look forward to his next story.

Special Thanks to IDW Publishing and Netgalley for the digital ARC. This was given to me for an honest review.
