Status Updates From The Wicked + The Divine, Vo...

Notes:
(1) This ended with two super low-key issues. Not the shock reveal or action that I've become accustomed to.
- I understand that these are rife with subtext and subtleties and blah blah blah, but I really don't care.
- If what happens here isn't clear and doesn't pay off until later installments, even if I really like it in retrospect, it doesn't help my opinion now.

Notes:
(1) The middle two issues are very modern art.
- #36 features 65 panels each depicting a scene from every single Recurrence event, from 3862BC to 2014AD.
- #37 features 90 straight black panels, each captioned with a date.
- It's monotonous and seemingly interminable, but that's the whole point. You're meant to feel both the scope of history and irritable impatience.

Notes:
(1) The first issue (#34) doesn't make too much sense until you read the next one, then it improves significantly in retrospect.
- Frankly, the best part is when the two lesser Norns discuss which member of Destiny's Child they each are: Kelly or "the other one."
(2) Issue #35 gets back to what you'd expect.
- Manipulations, double-crosses and hidden things revealed.

Notes:
(1) Previously, I've described this series as alternating between arcs that move the plot forward and arcs that tread water. I'm guessing this will be the latter.
- Just from the issue covers, it seems like this will look at past Recurrence cycles, at minimum through flashbacks.
- With everything already more-or-less revealed, I expect a lot of padding until the end.

i literally just reread the previous six volumes but i lowkey don’t understand the information that is being conveyed

Okay I feel like they’re trying to give me answers but I’m just so confused 😂 art as always is so good.

I am finally, FINALLY going to finish wicdiv. I have forgotten a lot (skimmed the previous two volumes to refresh) but think I’m misty okay now. And sheesh, people are keeping secrets! Interesting to see their other sides.
