In general, I think ROMULUS #1 tackles a lot of intriguing themes. Already, it touches on dehumanization, brainwashing, and trauma, but it could go way further. Hopefully, future editions will flesh out our protagonist and demonstrate, both visually and in terms of characterization, why exactly this evil organization is so toxic.

In general, I believe ROMULUS #2 is a huge improvement from ROMULUS #1. We're getting to know the characters and starting to see major themes of how oppressed people navigate their own oppression. I'm excited to learn more about these three "nasty women" and watch them learnto break free of their flawed roles.

Overall, SPELL ON WHEELS is about witches as real women, and borrowing from Pagan culture is an excellent way to delve into that theme. Of course, the writer did take a few liberties. For instance, an essential plot point in the comic is that witchcraft is passed down genetically through a small population. However, in Paganism, anyone can learn witchcraft. And yet, overall, SPELL ON WHEELS #1 perfectly captures the basics and the feel of living as a Pagan woman.

The first issue of the new ongoing STEVEN UNIVERSE comic series is warm and stress-free. It might be filler, but it's got all of the feminist messages and humor of the regular series. Plus, it's always great to see Lapis and Peridot have some fun for once.

All in all, THE ELECTRIC SUBLIME #1 is a vibrant love letter to all artists who live with mental health issues, both throughout history and in the present. The plot, art, and characterization all work together to weave the relationship between creativity and mental illness throughout the comic. At the moment, it is unclear what Prince, Morazzo, and Lopes believe the nature of this relationship to be, but I am excited to find out.
