This superb volume continues the outrageously high standards of character driven drama. There are some excellent call-backs to previous story points and you get to see just how deep and nuanced this tale really is. The drama is more personal than ‘end of the world’ but that makes it even tenser.
Tess Fowler has taken over art duties and although you can see a softer, more rounded style things hang together. The panels and layout are now more rigid and traditional however. Gone are Upchurch’s frenzied multipage action sequences unfortunately.
The Rat Queens special featuring Braga’s origin story is at the end of this volume and there are several pages of behind the scenes art extras.
Thumbs Up!
