Cool but confusing
A group of girls timetravels from 1988 to the year 2016 and then there are evil people, monsters, dinosaurs and apple products
In my opinion the story could be told a little more smoother because each chapter feels very out of place and a lot of information is so random and I forget it instantly 
If you don’t consider these aspects then this comic is really fun and quick to get through.

Was hoping this was about friendship and delivering papers. Not quite! I could've been interested in the sci-fi element, but to be honest, I just didn't find it interesting :/

The time travel element of this was thoroughly enjoyable. It was like Dark (the TV show) with aliens. Also, the art was gorgeous and the colour palette was phenomenal.

Vol 2 was better than the first, and I am enjoying seeing more of the mystery of what's happening to the girls unfold. It still left a lot more new questions than answers with the plot but it was vivid and engaging enough to make me want to continue the series even though I was iffy about it after reading the first volume. Love the art as always and hope to see more of the girls' backstories and development in the following volumes.
