mysteriousmre 's review for:

4.0

It probably deserves just 2.5-3 stars because of all the world-building exposition and we really only get to know 1 of the characters this volume, but Nguyen's art is so freaking gorgeous I can't help but give it a recommendation. It's more than a little tropey, but it has potential and I was genuinely surprised by some of the developments at the end. If you're on the fence I say give this a shot. It's pretty cheap at just $10 (most trades from DC or Marvel will run you $15-20) and if you like watercolor then you're going to LOVE this series.

sidenote: the book actually caught me off guard with some of graphic violence. Not recommended for younger readers.
