A little all over the place? Sure, but at least I had fun

Elsa Bloodsport, you’re so fucking cool with your band of universal monsters <3

Remy, you switched up so fast every ten seconds you might as well change your name to Quicksilver

Jubilee, baby, how did you get caught so quickly?

The kids getting a bed time story was very sweet

[Craig Schorling · Rating 5 out of 5]

This one felt perfectly paced. The bouncing back and forth between the dual stories kept the mood and tones shifting. The kids slowly falling for the storytelling was hilarious. Then we have a somewhat of an intervention for Remy before some uninvited guests show up. Marquez's art is great in this one.

Ok, the plot has potential. I am not loving the artwork, but I'm willing to keep reading.
