The grip Marjorie Liu and Sana Takeda have on my eyes. Streak continues with volume 7 of Monstress: Devourer.
Things aren't great for our cast. The Dusk Court has made a big play, the Wolves are all in various states of incapacitation, and the Baroness is making me feel bad for her. Which should be illegal! And then we find find out some of the past. Wouldn't be Monstress if it wasn't rough.
But there is always Professor Tam Tam.
Reasons to read:
-Every character looks like they could be the protagonist of their own story
-Found a way to make me feel bad for a betrayer
-Just look at the art!
Cons:
-I am hesitant to pick up volume 8 because of the implications...
