The Hunger and the Dusk, Vol. 1 by G. Willow Wilson

3.0

What I loved most about this ARC was the art itself. It was easier to lose myself in the story strictly because of the art. However, the storyline itself felt a bit choppy, a bit rushed, and I didn’t get much background throughout the first six issues. It kept pulling me out of the story anytime I felt like I was understanding a piece of the story or how rushed it all felt.

The humans and the orcs coming together to defeat the Vangol is a great concept, especially with the ticking time bomb that is their planet due to climate issues, but I felt a bit lost on the characters backgrounds and such. Hopefully more gets answered in future issues that I’ll keep an eye out for though!
