RUN!!!
I really enjoyed this issue. Yeah, there were a few confusing things going on here, and it took me a few pages to figure out that this issue was happening at the same time as the prior issue, but those aren't the types of things that can ruin a comic for me. I'm sure the weird stuff from 1693 will be cleared up in due time and will add to the rich tapestry of this series. Sure, I wish Ike was in this issue, seeing as that Ike rules, but Zoe did a good job of being the asshole of the issue, so I was cool with Ike not showing up here. As always, I'm definitely looking forward to the next issue. Read Full Review
Joe Eisma absolutely nails every bit of humor in Spencer's script. Zoe's facial expressions throughout the issue are absolutely hilarious. As crazy as she is, Eisma sells her as someone so beautiful and terrifying that it is impossible to stop watching her. Eisma's settings still seem to lack any significant detail: the hallways are bare, meeting rooms are bare, and the bathrooms are bare. Only Ms. Hodge's office seems to have a few posters on the walls. The Morning Glories Academy itself is as much a part of the story as the characters, so fleshing out its personality would be welcome. Perhaps it is just a quirk of the school: no one knows what it is, no one knows who runs it, and no one can decide how to decorate the walls. Read Full Review
Jumping on point: I guess you could jump in here. On one hand, you'll be confused. But people who have read since the beginning are confused too. You could probably read this issue and see if you like the narrative structure and art. If so, pick up the trades for find it digitally. Read Full Review
The mystery remains two-steps out of reach for the characters and audience alike, but I'm so enjoying the ride that (at least for now) I'm not too worried on the destination. Worth a look. Read Full Review
