Taproot is a charming story about love, loss, and cherishing the people we hold dear.

We follow Blue, a ghost, and Hamal, a gardener who can see ghosts, as they navigate friendship, love, spooky forests, and the vast chasm of incorporeality. Conceptually, I loved everything about this; I only wish the story and characters had more room to breathe and develop.

Artistically, Taproot is a canvas of gentle vibrancy that complements the underlying themes of the story beautifully. However, narratively, it felt a little too rushed for me to fully sink my teeth into. There are some truly delightful concepts here that I wish were explored deeper, but the story only scratched the surface of where I wanted it to go. 

Overall, if you're looking for a sweet story with spooky paranormal elements that you can binge in an afternoon, this might be the comic for you.
