Fun.

Amazing. Dozerdraws art style pairs well with the original art design done by Brooklyn Allen and Noelle Stevenson while still putting their own twist on things.
This issue was compelling, leading up to the anniversary issue next month, always having me question what’s going on at this camp and wondering what’ll befall the girls next!

Not too much to say about this one, since it was just setting up the latest story arc, but it was interesting! I haven't decided how I feel about the art style in this one yet, though. I always feel really thrown off when it changes like this. I do wish they kept it more consistent, I have to admit. But I'm still really looking forward to finding out what happens next.

A raging storm left the Lumberjanes cooped up in the Mess Hall. Outdoor activities are forbidden and indoor crafts and games are mandatory.

Favorite character: I liked them all but I identified with April unable to concentrate because she's thinking of snacks.

So far this arc seems interesting, let's see what happens with to Mal, April and Rip.

Not much to this issue as it’s setting up for another adventure. I am surprised, though, that a little rain has kept all the Lumberjanes cooped up. I was having trouble recognizing Jo with this new drawing style, but otherwise it isn’t bad.

I like this new artist! Despite the art having a simplistic look, it goes with the story and propels the action forward. Here's to issue #50!

Not sure what happened here but still moving on

[Shellina Nefelibata · Rating 4 out of 5]

They need to seriously stop changing the art style.

[Megan Murphy · Rating 5 out of 5]

What would happen if the campers had to stay inside all day because of the rain? Well tune in to find out!

[Anthony Piña · Rating 4 out of 5]

La historia comienza bien y está divertida la idea de dos historias importantes ocurriendo a la vez. El juego y el laberinto bajo tierra.

What is this art style? 🙃

[V. Arrow · Rating 3 out of 5]

I shudder to think what the gals have found -- or what's found them -- down in that tunnel!
