Creatures is set in a post-apocalyptic world after the "Big Night" which turned all the adults into zombie-like creatures, leaving the children to survive on their own. This graphic novel treads some familiar territory, namely Omega Man and H.P. Lovecraft while keeping the formula fresh by focusing on the kids (and one with some pretty cool psionic powers). I particularly enjoyed the quality of the artwork, with lots of creepy, Lovecraftian visuals. Creatures kept me engaged enough to want to know what happens next, or rather, in the next issue.

I have no idea what this was all about.
It was way too jumbled and not enough information was given.

It is some kind of post-apocalyptic world where only kids are normal(?) and adults crave sugar(??) or whatever, and there is this strange creature who is a master of the adults and an albino black kid who has some powers(???)

It was really too weak and low in information for me to have liked it.

Imagine Omega Man, in a world where Lovecraftian monsters caused people to become mindless zombies, and it only affected the grown-ups. Omega Man meets Peter Pan as written by H.P. Lovecraft, basically. There's plenty of humor, very enjoyable characters and a surprising plot unfolding in the background...

The world has ended and all the adults have been turned into zombies. Two small groups of children are struggling to survive. While stealing some food, the bigger group discovers a child with powers to make himself and others invisible to the zombies. The groups come together to escape the zombies, but the bigger group intends to exploit the other to find food. They run away and go back to their apartment only to be kidnapped by the zombies. Meanwhile, the clouds are gathering and the worst is yet to come.

Wow! What a fantastic weave of characters living in a post-apocalyptic New York City, struggling to survive a gritty, changing landscape of horrific zombies and a strange green fog. Action-packed with frightening, nightmarish creatures and jump-scare scenarios. The perfect setup for a frenetic new series.
