  After a couple more introspective issues, Jim Henson's Labyrinth: Coronation #8 feels like it's getting back on track. It ties back into the plot of the movie and grounds us again in that (a necessary touchstone, considering how fluid the Labyrinth can be), which alerts us to the suggestion that this plot probably ends differently. The art continues solid, and there are some thoughtful points here. Not a jumping on point, but for people following the book, it's like it takes a deep breath and starts rolling again.

  The arrival of a warring party increases the tension and has Maria going to an unexpected location. I like the characters, but was not thrilled with the heroes' conversations or actions until the antagonists appeared. From this point on the story became very interesting, with the ending of the book being a slick cliffhanger. The visuals are better this issue with many of the familiar characters resembling those from the film. This will please fans of Henson's film. Read Full Review

  This was a fine continuation of the story that has grabbed my attention overall. Unfortunately, there wasn't much there that was interesting until the end of the issue. Read Full Review
