I have been following Matthew Erman’s comic career for a while and watching it evolve over time. The themes that have been explored in each of his stories have related in one way or another in some ways but they all feel like they were leading up to Loving, Ohio. I was lucky enough to read the comic last year and have not been able to stop thinking about it since. It’s a beautiful horror graphic novel dealing with family, belonging, and understanding the systems on which you can rely.

Made up of many prominent townspeople, The Chorus has their hands in everything. When a high school senior dies by suicide, his surviving friends believe that The Chorus, who they know more as a dangerous cult, will spin their friend’s death to show why people should join them.

It gradually becomes clear, however, that the town of Loving is run by the Chorus, a new-agey cult whose beliefs range from past-life regression to the dangers of fluoride. The kids regard their parents’ fanaticism with adolescent skepticism: “All religions are cults.
