3.5 Stars, Borrow
Self Purchase, Comixology
This issue starts with the new Mayor and some political crap I found rather boring. Meanwhile, Dr. Jo is starting her new job.
I’m still really digging the art in this series. However, I’m not thrilled with this second story arc. I like Dr. Jo’s character and will definitely keep reading. But, this issue sorta stunk. First of all, it seemed extra short. Secondly, Absolutely nothing interesting happened. Ugh. Not thrilled but I’m still holding out hope that the story of the trees and the people come back into play more. I still miss the people from the first arc. Sometimes I find it hard to decide whether to recommened buying or borrowing it because I’d say buy it for the entire series, but if going on just an issue, I’d say borrow.

Banal and transitional episode of The Trees - unless you appreciate the little things.

I still like this comic very much.
It could be a bit more forthcoming with its central element but that is part of the fun. Interested in which way this will play out.

Great chapter, with great color, too. This book moves forward at a relaxed pace for a post-apocalypse story. Recommended.
