This is very fun and very gay. Like really gay. However, I suspect I'm not the target audience for this considering I really couldn't care less about sports-themed stories. And even though the cast is diverse and kinda quirky in their own way, the main characters Mickey and Astra were quite unlikeable.

this is the horny campy dykey softball comic book of my DREAMS!! the level of dyke drama in this book is so off the charts in every conceivable way. it's so fun and silly and the magical element is so over the top because why not!! the number of butches and just all-around lesbianism was such a treat. added to the gorgeous colors and silly one-liners, it was just a fun good time!!

Grand Slam Romance is a really fun time, I am not at all a sports girly and even less so a fan of baseball or softball but this story was a total blast to read with lots of lesbians having sex, being messy as shit and tons of great goofs. Astra Maxima is one of my favorite characters in any medium that I read in 2024 being a really fun and messy character who has a lot of solid funny scenes. The comic does a good job of keeping a light tone while also keeping you invested in these characters and their feelings for each other. At first it's hard to read Astra but getting to know her feelings near the end really feels like a nice pay off, everyone is fun and it's just a simple good time.
It does feel like the story didn't totally wrap everything up intentionally for a second book to exist but I want to read that second book, I think there MIckey and Astra end up is great and I adored seeing all the different kinds of sapphics represented from our He/hims to our non binary lesbians to femmy lesbian fuck boys we really had it all here. The character designs are top of the line and the pair of Ollie and Emma really work amazingly together. It's the kind of comic project you can tell the creators love each other and that love shows up in the world, a beautiful dance of collaboration that any artist who has got to work with someone they love will see the fruits of.
I bought this book on a whim and I for sure do not regret picking up the hard cover. It's a really great time and one I think other people should check out too. I look forward to the future book and seeing how the follow up to this works.
