It felt too fast in the beginning, but at the end of this volume I was hooked.

Interesting concept that seems to involve time travel with beautiful, colorful art. However, I found the plot moved too quickly for me to get really attached to the story and characters. I might read the next volume?

More homophobia than anything gay in this story. Don’t understand why it’s listed as lgbt+. I don’t think a side character mentioning their partner or their gay parents qualifies.

I really liked the art style and the 1980s setting, but I think this was just too violent for me. I'm not a huge sci-fi reader; I liked the
time travel aspect but would have preferred less of the monster/alien aspect
, which is just personal preference. I understand that the homophobia is part of the time period, but it was a little hard to read at times.
