Ascender, Vol. 1: The Haunted Galaxy by Jeff Lemire
5.0
Already knew I would love this and Nguyen’s style is a treat to dive back into. I really adore this series of Lemire’s! I once again find myself thinking I should look for original projects more often.
Seeing Andy with Mila is so wonderful because he is still clearly the Andy we knew, but now a father with shifted priorities. Mila is super tough and already is worming her way into my heart. Her entire demeanor is just so refreshing. She’s strong willed and protective and she deserves the world… preferably not one controlled by Mother.
Mother is a very interesting villain that is being set up. She’s incredibly sadistic and horrible and shows only care for her own desires above everything else. Her craving for control is only possible with her magic… which has very unique properties and I look forward to learning more about it as I progress through this series!
Descender firmly landed itself as a favorite comic series of mine, and I’m hoping this one does the same in the end. A very fantastic start and I’m glad to be back in it!!
