It's the beginning of the end for some unlucky inhabitant of the world of Lenore! The fight that's been building for over a year is finally here and the sleepy town of Nevermore will never more be the same! (Did you see what we did there?) Yes, Round One of what's being billed as the battle of the century, well at least in this office anyway, is about to kick off and it's going to get pretty ugly, pretty darn quickly!
Is this a good place for you to start reading Lenore? I don't see why not. I mean if not you have a lot of reading to catch up on. Which is great and all and you should totally do that, but right now you can just enjoy an issue and learn about the characters and just understand the type of humor to expect. For me the wait for the next issue is unbearable (still funny), but I'll be eagerly awaiting it regardless. Read Full Review
This storyline wraps up with the next issue in which a character will die. I have no idea who will kick the bucket, but I'd be sad to see any of the characters die as they work so well together. It's a great comedic team. If anyone has to go, can it be the pickle hat? Does he count? Is it a he? Do pickle hats have genders? Read Full Review
Lenore reads something akin to what one might expect of Jeff Smith's Bone, had it been written and drawn by an LSD-fueled Charles Addams. It's hilarious in all the wrong ways -- which are, of course, the best ways. And don't worry if you're not up to date on the story so far. Flashback Squirrel (bless his soul) will be there to catch you up as best he can. Read Full Review
If nostalgia is taken out of the equation though, the story still holds up and manages to fill that niche hole of a YA book that doesn't hold back with dirty humour and good art. Read Full Review
