Filled with chaos, attempted murder, and an undead seagull, the story like no other continues! After an encounter with an unfriendly entity in an underworld not her own, Lady Hel finds her way to get back to her own dimension's Earth.

The art is serviceable, and the conflict has stakes, so this is a mildly recommended pick. Read Full Review
