Por fin retomé los cómics y, con lo cortos que son, no puedo comentar mucho sin soltar spoilers a mansalva. 😂

So yes hi I am screaming right now. I love Pierce Brown's writing and his commentary translates so well to this comic format. The art style in this is absolutely amazing and as each volume comes out, I find myself reading faster and faster and wanting to know more about the story. The ending of this had me wanting to jump up and down and scream I kinda saw it coming but I am freaking out. Everything is coming to a climax and I can't wait to see what the next volume has in store!

I know this won't end well, but Bryn wielding a Razor is so hardcore my aesthetic that I am internally having a meltdown at this level of badassery


Content-wise, this is some of the best freaking dialogue we've had. We're in the realm of "Mad's Emotions Are On Such A Rollercoaster She Has Lost The Ability To Can" -- that is just how good this dialogue is. What I love is that it's not just inner monologue from Fitchner, because Bryn and other characters get some of the best lines...but most especially Bryn.

DAMN, GURL. First off, this woman is a bloodydamn Red queen and I am not prepared for my heart to be shredded by how I basically figure this will go. Augh. My heart. Not prepared.

Send help, I won't last this series.

I have already stated why I am not a fan of the artwork. I did like how the story unfolded - past and present - through the paneling.

The story is amping up and tying it all together before the last issue. I love this one because of what Bryn said to her sister about her son, and the Goblin nickname. Funny foreshadowing.

I did catch a blooper. On the cover Bryn has her robotic leg, but on the second to last panel, she has two flesh legs. oops.

Too short!

Ugh. I want more! As always, the art isn't my style, but the story gets better, more compelling, with each issue. I almost screamed with frustration when I reached the end because I need the rest of the story!

I've had this on my TBR shelf for a million years. I'm glad that I FINALLY got around to reading it. I really enjoyed the fast- pace of it. Strong female characters and plenty of "who are the bad guys" stuff.

I don’t know what I was expecting, but what a thrill ride this turned out to be. The plot stayed interesting and I liked most of the twists. Darrow was hard to identify with, but I’m not even mad about it. His ideas and political genius were enough to keep me caring about him. I’m excited to continue with the series!
