Found this while browsing my library's digital collection on Hoopla. Seemed like a cool read so I checked it out. Despite the fact that this anthology started as a social media tag, this book didn't read great as a digital version. The physical version is probably better.
There are no buffers between the different comics. You swipe a couple pages then its a new art style out of nowhere. The comics all work individually as well, so there is no continuation of a story or theme between artists. Additionally, most of the artists didn't include their name or social media with their comics so it was hard to tell who did what without going back to the Table of Contents. I think I would have liked author bios or at least some standard identification between each comic.
The content itself was great. Very informative although repetitive. Especially in the beginning. There are no themed sections. Its just one comic after another non-stop.
Despite its flaws, it was very informative. And it was cool to see such a wide range of art styles and perspectives.
