Monstress, Vol. 1: Awakening by Marjorie Liu
4.0
Wow, this is one of the most engaging graphic novels/comics I've read in awhile. In the past, I've had difficulty following the sequence of illustrations in some graphic novels, or disliked the artwork, or just didn't care about the characters. I'm not that familiar with myths, so I can't say how original Marjorie Liu's ideas are, but I love how lush and imaginative the world of Monstress seems to be. Kana Takeda's artwork perfectly complements the fantastic elements of the story.
