Grand Guignol was a GREAT arc, really good to see the culmination of Robinson’s reinvention of the shade, REALLY sad ending though wtf. Do wish the narration boxes would occasionally pick more legible fonts though.

Space adventures were great fun!!! The Krypton one and the final issue were particularly good. Really enjoying the job this comic does of reconciling all the previous starmen into one coherent narrative but I am excited to get back to Opal and our fave recurring cast, featuring Ralph and Sue as well this time!!!

Returning to the world of ‘90s comics <3333 and wow were these first nine issues action packed. We got the justice league, the legion, Jack and Mikaal going to space, time travel, major Shade moments, it just keeps getting better!!! The moment between Jack and Umbra when they talked about random trivia was really fun as well, I love nerds.

Only had time to read the prologue tonight but I’m already extremely invested!!!! It looks like we’re in for some complicated politics which I always enjoy.

How is it already depressing, the plot hasn’t even really started yet…

I’m actually starting to get a little frustrated that not a single one of these women is a lesbian… Althea please you don’t have to marry a man!!!!

And so the plot thickens!!!!! So much happening already, it’s all very exciting. I think my suspicions about dragons in this series may in fact be correct but I’m intrigued to see how the Rain Wilds slot in. Loving the new POVs of Jani and Serilla, and the Wintrow-Kennit-Vivacia plot is shaping up to be very interesting indeed

I’ve been listening to the Pirates of the Caribbean soundtrack while reading this and it’s actually very atmospheric. The slow start has paid off and I’m fully invested in these characters and their stories. Althea is still my favourite but Wintrow is definitely growing on me. And I’m very interested to find out what will happen with Amber and Paragon.

Very slow-going but hopefully that’ll make for an interesting story later down the line. I am intrigued by Althea and what she’ll do now, as well as how the other povs will intersect with her adventures going forward. The Bingtown setting is very interesting as well.
