This barely squeaked into a 4-star rating for me, but I have faith that this series holds promise. I loved Noelle Stevenson's Nimona, so I just feel like there's got to be more in store than I was given in this first installment. Still...it was a good art style with fun characters, it just had a bit of a weird narrative that felt like it jumped around a lot. The whole ride felt a little bit like I was horribly hyped up on sugar and unable to sit still. It was a blur of weirdly connected vignettes. *Shrug* We'll see what happens in Volume 2.
