A review by kingtess
Sleepless Volume 1 by Sarah Vaughn
4.0
SLEEPLESS is that rare comic released in issues which manages to provide decent pacing AND emotional hooks. This read like a smooth, confident story, not a disjointed series of events like so many comic volumes. Still suffers from weird cliffhangers, but such is the nature of the beast.
Poppy is a wonderful heroine: she knows exactly what she wants, she understands her limitations, and she will do whatever it takes to protect herself, her loved ones, and her dreams. No paper-thin cookie cutter protagonist, she feels real, nuanced, and fleshed out (another thing I'm not used to seeing in comics).
