Angela: Queen of Hel: Journey to the Funderworld
by Marguerite Bennett
SOOOOOO, I heard a lot about this comic and how wonderful it is and I outright bought it because of the whole "give me space lesbians or give me death" tweet will not leave me and lemme tell you...
IT WAS FREAKING EPIC I LOVED EVERY PAGE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE SOMEONE STOP ME FROM BUYING EVERYTHING BENNETT HAS EVER WRITTEN ABOUT THESE TWO oooooooHHHHHH MMMMyyyy gOOOOOOOODDDDDDD
*ahem*
Angela: Queen of Hel is blatantly out of order in Angela and Sera's story together, so I had some catching up to do. Luckily, Sera & Angela's penchant for cuddling mid-battle gave me some space to breathe and unboggle the massive amount of world-building I missed. The diverse cast was indeed a #squadgoals moment all around, and, while Sera is a bit damselled by the whole premise, she kicks enough butt and is in enough control later to forgive it. Plus, the happy ending. How can I say no to that?
The art was action packed with gorgeous (kissing) shots interspersed. While it's a similar style of more testosterone-fueled stories, instead the high action was focused on how it helped Sera & Angela's relationship and personal goals. There's no random rocket gorillas here, and I'm grateful. The motif of queens and kingdom is much better than that.
Overall, beautiful art and beautiful story of revenge, redemption, freedom, forgiveness, and love. Space lesbian murderfloof, guys. It's space lesbian murderfloof.
