Its a world Id like to spend more time in. Ill have an essay taking a deeper look at the series coming out soon.

I was so blown away and overwhelmed by another outstanding issue that I made a fan mix.

The creators told the story of their youth the way they wanted to and so it offed itself so we can grow and change and move to the next thing which is the creative team's new series, The Wicked + The Divine. May Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie have 100 years until their Blackstar.

Every aspect of this series is rich and deliberate.

The atmosphere of the book " the look and feel of its colors and even how light itself is portrayed on the page are central. I love how Churchland draws hands" you can see the bones inside them. I love how she draws skin" it has texture but it seems to glow. And I love the clothes she invents" where can I buy them?!

Also, is this the song that Black Canary is playing at the wedding? There are no perfect matches for those lyrics and knowing the creative team's tastes and Dinah's promise of 80s music it could well be Siouxie and the Banshees.

Regardless, anyone who grew up goth or listens to witch house needs to buy this comic or lose their cred. Anyone who likes horror/suspense or mysteries too.

The story is as firmly rooted in NYC as it must be and the NYC they depict feels real. The moments of interaction with the Marvel U are delicate and well placed and funny when they should be.

Who knows, may be the magical girls will come together and organize a union like the Retail Action Project does. That would be truly heroic!

I'm not sure if the series is going to try to do anything as radical and ambitious as the last. But this is simply a good heist comic. I really enjoyed it. If you want to classic Catwoman comic get a reading!
