Pat Mills' writing is still good, as is Clint Langley's art (Staples just isn't really for me). But no matter how well done it is, I can't shake the feeling of watching a well dressed corpse dancing before me. It's hard to really care about what's happening. Slaine's history just keeps getting more and more muddled with each volume, and it's not really fun to read these books anymore. I'm not really looking forward to the rest of the series.

There were moments when this was good. Then there were moments, when this was funny. Also, there were moments, when I hated to read this. But I kept going. Mainly because the art on this one is so beautiful.

The Lord of Misrule is Slaine’s encounter with medieval Britain. Just this clumsy fusion of Celtic and Anglo Saxon history make the story painfully inconsistent. One of the worst arcs for the Celtic warrior.
