Unicorns, zombies, and the end of the world. Add in found family, a slow growing romance, excellent art and world building, and this is a comic I really want everyone to read. The art is lovely; while the unicorns bleed rainbow blood these are no cute and cuddly kids toys. They’re strong, fast, and just as angry and lost at what’s happening around them as the humans are.
Glitter is slowly coming into her own as a leader while Blaze, a unicorn more versed in healing than violence, loves her quietly from a distance. Then there’s Kate, the child Glitter rescues, who has lost everyone — parents, friends, humanity itself — who goes from wanting nothing to do with unicorns to seeing them as her new family, Silver, a unicorn who had given up on being forgiven, and Grimm, the dog shaped being who wants to kill Kate and the occasional visits from Famine, and it’s a road trip through a dying world. Sirens, bigfeet, vampires, pegasi, gryphons … it’s a bright, colorful world of chaos and carnage and it’s wonderful. I loved every minute.
Please read this comic! And thank you so much to Net Galley and the publisher for the ARC!
