Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No

One of the best graphic novel/comics I’ve read. The story was so compelling and the art style was such a beautiful compliment to it. So incredibly immersive and dark. I love how the art style slightly shifted drying flashbacks. A great snapshot of the most toxic relationship in comics. The ambiguous ending is so great and the amount of serious themes tackled in 50 pages is startling. Definitely would read again and recommend.
