  This issue ends thus ends up being one of the better ones in the recent run of the series. While most issues are enticing enough, they also form a greater narrative and thus read better together than separately. This issue has the benefit of focusing on two of the series stronger points, the more esoteric explanations for the academy as well as one the academy's more interesting characters, Jade. While this issue still fits within the overall concept and design of the series, its individual focus results in a better overall read than the few issues that have come before. As always it is hard to recommend one issue of this series over another as they feed into one another, but this issue does seem to be getting back to the meat of the series. Read Full Review

  Morning Glories #45 is one of the best issues of this series in recent memory. It's fulfilling and answers quite a bit of questions regarding Jade and her abilities. When reading Morning Glories you always have to look at the big picture rather than a single issue, but this issue is definitely great on its own. Read Full Review

  "Morning Glories" only has one jumping-on point, and that's the first issue. I could not recommend "Morning Glories" #45 to a new reader but, for fans who have been following the story all along, it rewards that loyalty with satisfying answers. Read Full Review

  Since we've already seen multiple sightings of an older Jade helping to usher various characters onto the right path we can be confident she's not going to be Jun's sacrifice. Nor does she appear willing to bring back Hisao on her own, but if bringing back a loved one turns them into an enemy I have to wonder what bringing back an enemy might result in. Worth a look.

  Some shaky moments in artwork aren't enough to derail yet another excellent Jade story of Morning Glories. Read Full Review
