I honestly think the art is really fantastic. I don't have like a copy of the comic with me because i got it from the library and i already returned it, but i really, really enjoyed the art in here. But the plotting in this story was like way too much and way too messy for me.
Bitter Root Volume 1 (2019)
In the 1920s, the Harlem Renaissance is in full swing, and only the Sangerye Family, once known as the greatest monster hunters of all time, can save New York -- and the world -- from the supernatural forces threatening to destroy humanity. But those days are fading and the once-great family that specialized in curing the souls of those infected by racism and hate has been torn apart by tragedies and conflicting moral codes. A terrible tragedy has claimed most of the family, leaving the surviving cousins divided between by the desire to cure monsters or to kill them; they must heal the wounds of the past and move beyond their differences ... or sit back and watch a force of unimaginable evil ravage the human race.
this is a graphic novel that focuses on some complex themes including racism it takes place in the 20s in harlem and focuses specifically on one family
