Hex gets a little more comfortable settling in at the beach (not by choice.) And we also meet the girl who will probably turn into his love interest. Nothing really happens and the story doesn’t really advance in this issue.

I do see potential, but there’s so much happening. It’s a good premise for a story and could potentially be a great comic, but there’s so much /noise/ that I would much prefer this as an animated TV show. The panels are hard to follow even when nothing is happening.

The story seemed a bit all over the place. No real advancement in the story.

I am blown away by the depth of the world building in this one. Wandball reminds me of Quidditch. Whole story is very discworld. All good things.
