ORIGINS OF VOX MACGINA BITCHES ! YES !
I need the next one, to see Percy and Pike
And I am also slightly confused because I would have thought Pike and Grog would have been together but Grog was with Scanlan….hmmm
We’ll see in the next one

Such fun - I loved diving into the origins of the Vox Machina characters and they translate really well into graphic novel format!

I’m falling in love with this series all over again. I love being able to see the characters that I’ve so far only listened to in their usual podcast form. Can’t wait for the next books in the series.

Little bits of backstory for Vox Machina (C1), which I really enjoyed.

I started watching C1 when the cast was running their second campaign. So while I already had a good idea of how they interacted and what to expect, it was somewhat hard to follow along. They started streaming C1 at level 9, so it's cool to get pieces of their backstory which we didn't get to see on stream in this format. These volumes are a nice extra on how they got together.

It was really really cool to see how the group got together and how they treated each other in the beginning, and it gives a lot of good context to their interactions in C1

Amazing comic so beautifully written by the both Matts (Colville and Mercer). For someone who has only followed campaign 2, its a beautiful introduction to the characters of campaign 1 and it makes me personally excited to watch campaign 1.
