Huge fan of Star vs the forces of evil. Literally want to grab anything to quench the thirst between seasons. Also, STARCO is my OTP.

Very much like the show and a good story that feels very familiar to the episodes set up. Wish there were more STARCO moments. Also, This is like a part one of a series because the main story hasn't been resolved yet. I liked getting to see Star's parents when they were younger. It was kind of cute because there is so much depth to Moon Butterfly and River that the show used to only hint at. I like seeing them branch out of their stern royal appearance and show their real personalities. I also like that Moon's wand looked like it did as she was Queen and showed her studying her magic; just another inside to how her training was different from Star's and how they relate as Mother and Daughter in the show.

I liked how Ferguson showed up again. Where have those guys been on the show recently? Star is explaining like "This is why we don't invite you anywhere!"

The one story that I felt so unnecessary and freaked me out more than anything was Glosserick's story. I felt so confused when reading it.

Still trying to figure out what the Goblin Dog's stand has to do with Pony Head but remembering the episode, maybe the goblin dog did something to her?

This comic collection was definitely NOT what I was expecting... although I probably should have been prepared for more zany, child friendly adventures. (Not that the TV show isn't child friendly, it just focuses more on the emotions and development of the characters. This comic does not.) This bind up is more on the crazy side! I would of course recommend this comic collection to any hard core SVTFOE fan like myself, just to add one more thing to your knowledge base, but more to the younger audience of readers who enjoyed episodes such as Lobster Claws or Fetch.
Altogether it was a quick and easy read that I finished in 20 or so minutes, so if you're not in love with it, it won't be such a burden to complete.
