3.5 stars


I think this is my least favorite volume of this series so far. It felt like it was all over the place. Everything felt jumbled and disconnected. I think the disconnect might have come from the clashing art styles. The Death of the Family comic run was a huge departure from the rest of the RHATO comics art style. I also noticed that Jason’s inner monologue felt a little stilted. Like it wasn’t completely thought out. It really pulled me out of the story.

I don’t like how the Death of the Family arc feels like it was forced into this series. I know it was a necessary plot point, but I think it could have been better. Or maybe done in a way that feels like it actually fit into this particular series. This series isn’t nearly as dark as this story arc made it seem. So, overall I’m giving this a solid three and a half out of five stars.
