Now that once-separated sisters Rainbow and Jonna have found each other again, the next step in their quest is find their missing dad. In their quest, the sisters stumble upon a pocket of humanity in the broken wastes. Warriors and community leaders Gor and Nomi seem nice enough as they welcome Jonna and Rainbow to their campfire...but remembering that there's danger around every corner is rule number one in this post-cataclysmic world.
Finally the third entry explains what's going on...sorta. The writing really stinks in this issue with actual narrative. The brief swipe of explaining what is going on is shallow, empty and had me, again, know I would not pick up a 4th issue. Since I'm reviewing these, I'll continue.
One serious strike is made for nonsensical Valley-Girl banter from a character. This will severely date this series in the future. Also, the Valley-Girl banter is hard to understand. With so little words through three issues, an effort to be more direct and tell a story was needed in the first issue, much less the third. Here's another entry in the overall Media without the capability of having a like skinned couple. You'd think there is some law to do this in the current world of Media by a law with threat of execution. This now-trite constant brings chuckles imagining the inability of creativity.
The artwork is excellent. That's useless with a worthless story.
Bottom line: I don't recommend this book. 3 out of ten points.
Love the worldbuilding and character designs, love the art style, and I’m ALWAYS a fan of Wilson’s colouring! I was so enamoured with the first issue’s cover the second I saw jt and Jonna’s character design, but I also love how Rainbow’s design fills a bingo card of some of my fave character design traits!
The worldbuilding has a flavour that reminds me of Kay Carmichael’s “Sophie The Giant Slayer” which I really enjoyed! So excited for the next issue
