Census

To get the job of a lifetime, sometimes you have to sell your soul.

Liam Malone is an aimless college slacker living in New York City who answers a job posting ad for the Census Bureau that seems to require little of him. Knock on doors, ask a few questions, move on. But what he discovers is that the doors of New York City are hiding lots of things. Dangerous things. Supernatural things. Liam's new gig requires him to register all of the demons, djinn, and other bizarre creatures living in New York. How will Liam both keep his life and a stellar performance review?

Collects Census #1-#5, originally published by Comixology Originals.
