What starts as a horror story about children being eaten by unseen creatures quickly becomes something far more uncomfortable.

In this episode of The Comic Book Block, we dive deep into Something Is Killing the Children by James Tynion IV—a series that uses monsters as the least disturbing part of the story.

Yes, there are teeth.
Yes, there is blood.
Yes, Erica Slaughter shows up with a sword and zero patience.

But the real horror?
The systems.
The silence.
The adults who don’t listen.
The organizations that prioritize order over people and call it protection.

In this Episode we discuss:

• Why monsters are easier to confront than systems

• How the House of Slaughter turns trauma into a workflow

• Why “following protocol” is horror’s most reliable kill move

• And how denial somehow wears a badge, a suit, and a reassuring smile
