Hugo, World Fantasy and American Book Award-winning author of novels and comics, including THE BIRD KING, INVISIBLE KINGDOM, and ALIF THE UNSEEN. Co-creator of Ms Marvel. Honorary doctor of letters, Rutgers University. I accidentally started a dutch baby baking cult during quarantine. Not very active on here right now, but often found on Twitter.
This was fairly good. It was pretty clearly trying to be a left and righr coming together to fight a common enemy which seemed to be immigrants but only in the last or second last issue was it ever touched on that the immigrants also had humanity.
Not left on a cliffhanger, but left with a threat that climate change hasn't been addressed as that what the immigrants were fleeing.
Last issue felt the ending was rushed. Stakes of fhe villains never felt real. The world population didn't feel large. Just three groups of humans and orcs.
Last men standing never really made sense to me. Why wouldn't all able bodied people and orcs be fighting for their survival?
Wilson is one of my favorite GN authors. Her writing is just really good in everything I've read of hers so far. This series is awesome, i’m not sure where it’s going to go from here but i hope it continues.
