Grand Slam Romance by Ollie Hicks

3.0

This is super camp in a good way. Perhaps the most diverse queer sports comic I've ever read, and that's pretty cool.

This book combines a queer softball romance with magical girl elements. It's full of messy ex drama between Monsoon and Astra and then add in Wolfgang for even more drama. Ultimately, the messy feelings get in the way of the game and the background characters get stuck trying to play a sport with 3 people that won't focus on the actual game.

The jokes and puns can be a bit crass (aside from 1 really tired U-Haul joke), but it was pretty fun. There's some spice in it, so it's def meant for an older audience.
