3/5 Stars: Fence (Vol.1 #1-4 of ‘Fence’) by C.S. Pacat.

→ Genre: LGBT+, Sports Contemporary.
→ Trigger Warnings: Abandonment, Bullying, Mental Pressure.
In-depth Rating:
→ Plot: ★★
→ Character Development: ★★★★
→ Setting: ★★★
→ Entertainment Level: ★★★★
→ Writing: ★★★★
General Comments: An all introduction and set up; the relationship and competition threads are starting to unfold. It is quickly becoming an addictive opera. The choice of fencing, for the sport, is a particularly interesting one; as it is highly visual, extremely competitive, and a sport drawing very little attention to itself. The illustrations, by Johanna the Mad, are clean and simple; inspired by Japanese Sports Manga.
Favourite Quote: ‘Fencing the way you usually do becomes more difficult the more desperate you get.’
Time Read: One Day.
