Monstress, Vol. 2: The Blood
by Marjorie M. Liu
Love the art of this comic book. I was so confused by the first volume, I DNF it, then came back and loved it, then waited ages to read the 2nd, couldn’t remember/understand a thing about what was going on, skimmed through the first again, finished 2nd in 2 days, now waiting for the 3rd. This is love.
This must be one of the most complicated books I’ve ever read. To summarise the second I might say: there’s a girl, whose mother doomed into being the monster who will change everything, who will save the world or destroy the world. She’s not a monstress actually, she has a monster living inside her. But it’s not really a monster, although it does monstruos things (eating the hearts of people animals and mermaids), in fact it’s actually one of the old gods. And the girl is not a girl, she’s a halfwolf. And then there are: only women society, a cats’ society (pretty holy), and all sorts of half-animals half-humans kingdoms. It is a holy wonderful amazing genial mess.
