yoroxygrl 's review for:

SubZero Vol. 1 by Junepurrr
3.0

Thank you to Oni Press and NetGalley for an early digital copy of this graphic novel. This review is my honest feedback and given voluntarily.

Overall this wasn’t a bad start to this series/comic. Nice cozy read with great illustration. I did feel like there was a bit of background context missing but it wasn’t really a big deal for me. The illustration was beautiful and I really loved the color themes for the character groups. I had not read this comic on Webtoons prior to reading this volume of the novel version, so the whole story was new to me. I did feel like the story itself did not really progress all that much for the length of this first volume, but the amount of illustration we get is quite a lot, and honestly, for a graphic novel, I’m ok with that. I’m here for the illustration so I’m kind of appreciative of that being more at the forefront. 

I look forward to seeing where this story goes, as there seems to be some more layers hidden just under the surface that are about to pop off in the next volume/episodes. I would definitely recommend as one to read for those looking to get into graphic novels or those looking for an interesting yet mysterious story with some healthy tension between characters. Enjoy! 🤙🏼💕
