BOOM! Studios presents The Seasons Have Teeth TPB, compiling all four issues of the smash-hit cosmic-horror series The Seasons Have Teeth into a single volume, written by Dan Watters, of Sword of Azrael and Home Sick Pilots fame, illustrated by Sebastián Cabrol, with colors by Dan Jackson and letters by Blambot’s Nate Piekos. The story takes place in an alternate world, where the dawning of each season is reified into a fearsome eldritch creature, comparable to the Japanese kaiju, that wreaks destruction in its path.The Seasons Have Teeth follows retired photographer Andrew, a widower late in his middle age, and his crusade to photograph each of the seasons. It begins by chance when Spring passes through his English town, and Andrew stays behind to risk capturing a picture. Spurred on, he travels to Europe, evacuation zones, and Chernobyl in the hopes of glimpsing the elusive Summer and Autumn. Winter brings him back home to England, and a chance meeting will put his journey into a new perspective if he can survive the desolation the seasons bring.Andrew’s internal monologues are genuinely moving. Watters makes gorgeous choices to create a poetic cadence within the narration. The gravity of the content and the heartbreakingly beautiful composition give The Seasons Have Teeth a mythic, monumental quality that supports its lofty overarching structure. Each section is denoted by its season and a clear set of themes that accompany each of them. Spring is filled with youth, cruelty, and chance. Summer is defined by intensity, destruction, and ephemerality. Autumn is characterized by regret, decay, and disenchantment. Winter is marked by death, desolation, and the act of enduring. The chronological journey through each season acts as a meditation on the ongoing cycle of grief and memory at work within Andrew. The slow elaboration of his past creates a tightly bound nexus of pain, healing, and self-reflection.
