More of a 3.5 star rating; This is the first comic issue where it’s one complete story throughout all of the pages. I found it adorable how Puppycat tried to help Bee in his own way when she was feeling sad about her scarf.
This one has felt most like an episode of the actual TV series so far, but the issue as a whole suffered from that being the only story in the issue. It felt like some of the whimsy of the previous issues had been sidelined.
Aw yea. After my last review, complaining about the several single-page and double-page stories, this issue gives us just one story, filling the whole comic. And it is so, so good. A bit depressing, at points, but beautiful, with a good ending.
Bee and PC are contracted to clean off a windmill which catches lost hopes and dreams. The windmill keeper seems entirely nonplussed about the work, which troubles Bee. The ending is logical, given that description, but still a nice few pages.
The artwork is close to the show style, but with some added shading (watercolors?), which give it a new look and feel. Despite being about lost hopes and dreams, the entire thing winds up feeling rather comforting.
And, with that, I'm now caught up to Bee and Puppycat. Ugh...when, when shall the final episodes release!? Rawr!
I've usually adored every BAPC comic ever made, this was pretty disappointing, especially with the hiatus and waiting so long for the new issue :( awh man. This cover is definitely one of my favourites though, it's so damn beautiful, I can't stop staring at it.
