inkandplasma 's review for:

The Mighty Deep by Ben Fisher, Emily S. Whitten
3.0

I received an eARC of this book from Oni Press. It has not affected my honest review.

This was really fun. I requested it on a complete whim because I wanted something cute and I liked the cover. I'm looking forward to reading volume 2 now because I'm super attached to these adorable (and badass) hamsters.

I liked the way that the worldbuilding unravelled slowly over the course of the graphic novel as familiar elements were woven into the story. I sometimes found the hamster's versions of things (seedees = cds) a bit confusing, deciphering those is not my strong suit at the best of times, but I didn't mind it overall. All of the characters were super cute and loveable, with distinct personalities and really sweet relationships. I'm looking forward to finding out more about this world. It's an excellent fun read.
