Orla! #2

by John Lees, Dearbhla Kelly (Colorist), Sally Cantirino (Illustrator)

Orla has reluctantly agreed to a lunch-date with Gwyn, the friendly manager of her favourite local bookstore that she’s been crushing on. Gwyn tells cheesy jokes, dances badly, and has a worrying lack of embarrassment. But as initial awkwardness gives way to a fun afternoon, Orla faces a how does she deal with a guy she actually likes and doesn’t want her murderous alter ego to devour? Orla might just have a chance at a story-book romance of her own… if she can keep her inner monster under control.

This was cute! Orla and Gwyn get to go on their date. We watch them slowly start to come out of their shell. Though Orla is still nervous about her little secret. She tries so hard to contain herself and have a good time. These two are adorable and I hope it continues to go well. Good stuff so far!
