Monné reviewed Blackbird #6 Sep 7, 2019
The conclusion was somewhat satisfying. But, SPOILER ALERT, the final dialogue between Nina and her mother was unbearable. So repetitive and inconclusive.
END OF STORY ARC
Don't miss the climactic confrontation between Nina, the Great Beast, and the secret origin of magic.
Monné reviewed Blackbird #5 Sep 7, 2019
Now that's really good!
After taking out her anger on the Paragon cabals in a big way, there's nowhere in Los Angeles' four magical territories that Nina can hide. Good thing she's done hiding. It's time to throw down.

Between pulling back the veil on the magic underground and learning shocking secrets from the past, Nina can't even right now. Also, she's terrible at flirting, and that's getting in the way of making out with Clint.
Monné rated Blackbird #3 Sep 5, 2019
Nina thought magic was just cool spells and hot guys. But magic turned out to be so much more. Don't miss this issue's heartbreaking cliffhanger!

The Great Beast has kidnapped Nina's sister and the only way to find her is to follow a trail of magic gems, hidden symbols, and a handsome stranger. Can he put Nina onto the trail of the mystic creature she's after?
