This volume started off really strong, and was truly a huge step up from the last volume. Badlands is a compilation of short one-off stories focusing different groups of survivors, so the nature of the stories doesn't provide us too much time to get attached to any one character or their story.
Starting the volume off with a story written by Ennis, however, was a very nice touch. His writing has been such a breath of fresh air, and I was honestly disappointed that his writing wasn't featured in any of the other stories in this volume.
The third story in this volume also features an appearance from Crossed: Psychopath's very own Harold Lorre, which seemed odd, out of place, and a bit ham-fisted. It didn't necessarily add much to the story, and seemed to be included simply for a throwback effect for readers to go "Oh hey, I know that guy!"
Here's to hoping that Ennis is the featured writing more often in the coming volumes!
