I am thoroughly hooked on this post-apocalyptic comic book series. Reminds me of Y the Last Man, but I like it a lot more.

Hm, bambi and the road... I guess that's close. Things are moving along, but not fast enough for me. I should read this all in one collected volume.

- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? Yes
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Holy crap! I don't know how this collection could be any more intense.

Going through a bit of a reading slump right now but this has pulled me back out of it. This volume is dark and fast paced showing us more of the underbelly of both societal religion and the militia both using the hybrid children for their own yet fully disclosed agenda.
It will be interesting to see how Jeppard and Gus change or rebuild their relationship in future issues. It will also be interesting to see the progression and development of the hybrid children's history and the future that lays before them all.

Really the point where the plot kicks into high gear now that the characters and stakes have been set up, and the results are absolutely devastating. Beautifully calculated at the end so every person has reached a tipping point and the consequences have piled up, from Leppard again letting down someone he loves for the right reasons, to Abbott teaming up with the best possible henchmen for him. Goddamn.

I really like this series so, so much. This is the one where Jeppert develops an army to come save the hybrid kids. The world is getting so complicated now!

Still just petrified of the bad guys the whole time.

Whew, there was no shortage of gore in this volume. Definitely a lot more action here as Jepperd raises an army to free the hybrid children from "The Preserve" and maybe even get revenge on Mr. Abbot. Meanwhile, Dr. Singh is getting closer to solving the puzzle of where Sweet Tooth came from and how he might be connected to the plague. There's also an asshole wildcard character with a pack of wolf hybrids who reminds me a bit of The Governor from The Walking Dead. I wasn't sure what to expect with him, but it was definitely a nail-biter. I really enjoy the passion that these characters all have - Lemire does an excellent job of making all of his characters seem real, with back stories that are always ringing in the back of their minds, and you can tell! It's so easy (especially in comics) to just let some of the less important characters remain flat, stereotypical, listless props that only move and react when the story warrants it, but I haven't seen any of that in this series so far. I am becoming a bit hesitant about this whole crazy religion that's developing around Sweet Tooth's father's cryptic, prophetic "Bible." I'm looking forward to what's going on there but I hope Gus isn't actually some kind of immaculately concepted prophet. We will see...
