"MOTHERING INVENTION," Part Two: Once More We Return to the Once More We Return.
The Wicked + The Divine #35 keeps the story chugging along with some jaw dropping revelations. Gillen, McKelvie, and Wilson are turning in some best of their work in this book and it just keeps getting better. This issues drops the readers jaws and leaves them begging them for more. The art is pitch perfect. Everything works together to create another amazing installment in the saga of the Pantheon. Read Full Review
WicDiv#35 shows that Kieron Gillen, Jamie McKelvie, and Matthew Wilson can play the long game with the best of them while still crafting a story that is a strong on an artistic and emotional level. The Baal and Minerva twists work because readers have had the chance to connect with them and see them form relationships with other characters (And each other). I still don't know how a man who could have such a tender relationship with the now-talking-head Inanna could be such a monster, but it's one of many great questions raised by this comic that have me hooked until the end of the line.

Another twisty issue of "WicDiv" leaves no ambiguity as it breaks ours hearts with more betrayal. Read Full Review
The Mothering Intervention so far has proven to be a major story arc. I can see why the events of this arc they took their time getting to. It has all been so well thought out and planned between the things we needed to know and when we needed to know them. The Wicked & The Divine #35 was a great example of one of those times with perfect execution. There was plenty we learned new about this game, the players, and other things about the cycle that were overlooked till now. Read Full Review
Wicked + Divine #35 is another compelling issue of the series. The plot moves forward, the characters continue to engage, and the world continues to deepen. Its pacing isnt perfect; the story ends when it feels like its just getting going. However, I still largely had fun and can easily recommend this book as always. Give it a read. Read Full Review
There are a lot of moving pieces in The Wicked + The Divine as it approaches its climax, which makes even the less thrilling issues impressive. Read Full Review
I don't know quite what is happening here as this series moves towards its climax, but I have enough of a clue to still find the issue enjoyable. It was cool to see the scene from the very beginning replayed here. This is one of those books that is seeming like it would be better in trade, as the erratic schedule is hurting my enjoyment of it a bit.
