PROMO: Raymond Delgado isn't well. He's the newest inmate at the Hoxford Correctional Facility and Mental Institution. He has no hope of release, parole, rehabilitation, or decent conversation. On a good day, he'll tell you he's Zeus and only bite your arm off. Literally. On a bad day, you won't have time to scream to the prison guard for help. But Dr. Jessica Ainley, his doctor for five, years wants to help Ray and can't understand why the newly privatized, corporately-run prison won't give her access to her patients. And why are people always transferred into Hoxford, but no records show anyone ever transferring back out?


REVIEW: Ben Templesmith polako postaje jedan od omiljenijih mi savremenih strip autora, iako njegov vizuelni stil, kojeg se drži ko pijan plota, više baš i ne oduševljava kao na početku 30 Days of Night serijala, Ben uvek uspeva da servira dovoljnu dozu pomerenog i otrežnjujućeg, da ništa s njegovim potpisom nije gubljenje vremena, naprotiv - zabava nalik alkoholu, prija, ali na kraju ostavlja mučninu i glavobolju.
Ben se u Welcome to Hoxford opasno zaglibio u najcrnje ambise ljudskog uma, pišuću o gomili najumobolniji, najsurovijih zločinaca - pedofila, nekrofila, koljača, kanibala. Ti monstrumi, od kojih je i zatvorski sistem SAD-a digao ruke i poslao ih u privatnu ustanovu vođenu od strane sumnjive ruske kompanije, doživeće užase i muke jednake ili veće od onih u kojima su skončale njihove žrtve - biće živi pojedeni.

Ali, nećete ih žaliti. Ni nalik šetačima Zelenom Miljom, ovi skotovi su samo zlo, svakom sledećom stranom i u vama će zlo i želju za krvlju, osvetom i vaseljenskom pravdom buditi!
