Welcome to Litsy!

4✨Expect a lot of gore with this. This took us on a unique apocalyptic journey with the Mystery‘s inc gang. I think my biggest issue was they were not all friends when things went south so there is not much teamwork right now in taking care of the monster.

I‘m back! I hung up the King garland! Nice!! 🖤

I‘m eating the Bookworm gummies. LOVE them! Cute! 🎃

I love the stickers, washi & pens (book journal).

Halloween socks! You read my mind! 🐈‍⬛

This reed diffuser smells so much like Fall!! 🤗

Frankenstein - Penguin clothbound classic!! LOVE! 🥰

The writing and the art seem nearly ready to buckle as the series goes on, but this entry is salvaged by some emotional surprises.

While I was not a fan of volume 4, volume 5 is right back where the series belongs with high octane action, scenes that pull at your heart strings, and more Secret Squirrel. Personally I don‘t care for the Secret Squirrel sections, but these were better than in the past. I am curious how they will integrate the two stories. Only one book left, so hopefully it hits it out of the park.

This issue dragged out so long! We got a brief glimpse of Secret Squirrel in volume 3 but he is almost half the books. I know eventually the story lines will converge but right now I just find them boring and awkward.

Thanks to @LibrarianRyan for the tip! 😁

As a kid I wanted nothing more than having Scooby and Shaggy as my friends 😁 Now they've reached the 21st century as well. I liked how the crew is newly interpreted and how the dynamics between them changed. Only the discussions between Daphne and Velma are overly repetitive. Every thing else rocks!

I just got back from sending off Steele Prince and Scooby Apocaloyse to you. Tracking says Thursday.
Stay warm.

This is another book I may not have picked up on my own if not for #LMPBC, but I ended up enjoying it and loving the art work.
Thanks for sharing.
Side note, I have Shades of Magic and both Scooby Apocalypse. I hope to get vol. 2 read this weekend and then shipped off.

Loved it the first time - still loved it the second
#ReadingGraphicsChallenge - Reread

@Littlewolf1 I got these yesterday. And trust me I am running much later than you are. Between crazy holidays, new rotating work schedule and being picked to judge tournament is books titles (with only 2 weeks to critically read review and choose a winner for my round) I have been crazy swapped. I also own you a letter that I promise is coming. My goal read and get these out today or tomorrow at latest.

@cwarnier #lmpbc

Wellp.... Between doing NaNo for the first time, my kids going virtual, my phone's screen breaking and a major flare up, I havent started my mark up! So today is the day finally. Excited to sit down and just have fun for a little bit! 💙

Proving the series should have quit while it was ahead, much of Scooby Apocalypse‘s gimmick and charm have worn off by this volume, but fans may still find enough macabre fun to pass the time.

The art is a saving grace with just the right touch of psychedelic colors, but even for this Hanna-Barbera version of other (and better) morbidly reimagined classics like Afterlife with Archie, the writing in Scooby Apocalypse could use a Scooby Snack. #dogsoflitsy #comics #scoobydoo

Trying to keep with my "apocalypse" theme this week but Oz seems to have other plans . . . ?

#catsoflitsy

This comic is so good! I don't go for Apocalypse stories but damn everything about it is excellent. It combines nostalgia well with an updated origin story.

"Something terrible has transformed our world, turning millions of people into hordes of monsters. And only five people-well, four people and one mangy must-have the smarts, the skills and the sheer crazy courage to stare down doomsday. Can these pesky kids and their canine companion-using every incredible contraption in their arsenal-defeat the evil that has overwhelmed planet Earth? We've got only one thing to say about that: ZOINKS!" ?????

Not my favorite, it feels like nothing really happened in this volume. All filler.

Just finished this and I love it so much, makes me want to look for my old VHS of scooby doo on zombie island. Thank you @MeganAnn #nightmareswap

Axton with his favorite items from the #nightmareswap 🎃

Funny story: we may have gotten the Scooby Apocalypse GN for our nightmare swap person also. I may have read (and absolutely LOVED) it before we sent that off. Axton really wanted to read it also but didn‘t have time before we needed to get the box mailed out. @LibrarianRyan he was SO excited when he pulled that out of the box and he‘s been wanting to read it SO bad! You nailed it!!

Reading this tonight while watching Isn‘t It Romantic and drinking wine with my cat and dog. Oh the fun I get up to when my man is away. 🤓🤓🤓

I can literally go weeks without a chocolate bar and then all of a sudden...

BAM! I NEEDZ ALL DA CHOCOLATE OF FOREVER ALWAYZ!!!!! 🧟‍♂️🧟‍♂️

Also...Scooby and the gang during the Apocalypse?? Yes please. 😝

Scooby Apocalypse and starbuck's Halloween frap that tastes like a fruity pebbles slushie ✨🎃

Kind of a cool spin on the Scooby Doo franchise. Love the take on Shaggy. But I really didn‘t like the way Velma, my favorite character, was represented. I particularly hated the constant fighting between Velma and Daphne. It irritated me that the only two female characters were put at odds with each other.

*smh* 😂😂

Been on a bit of comic/graphic novel kick lately & thought these looked like fun.

I started this series, then the boyfriend fell behind on buying them. So glad I finally got to read them! Lots of fun, but as in the show, Scrappy is the worst part
#Scoobydoowhereareyou?

For those who loved the whole 'dysfunctional family' angle of the original cartoon updated for a more modern readership. Imagine George Romero style monsters mixed with an updated origin story for every cast member and a Secret squirrel 2nd story which is worth a read. I also like the switch of Fred as a lovesick puppy for the new fearless leader of the group, Daphne. Great group dynamics as it takes a while for the forced group to get along.

Zoinks! I always loved Scooby Doo. When I started this I wasn‘t sure right away that I liked it, but in the end I really did. It‘s definitely different from the show, but the familiar elements are there. I think the only thing I didn‘t care for was Daphne and Velma‘s back and forth. I get it, but let it go for a bit, Daphne. #screamathon

This is not the Scooby Doo you grew up with. #apocalypticread #backtoreading

This collection of issues was amazing. I loved the art style and how action packed it was. Overall, things were a little repetitive but I'm anxious to read more. A very fun twist (but not reboot) of Scooby Doo

I found #hoopla and I'm obsessed with comics right now. This is funny and I like it.

Not sure about this one. Anyone read this yet?

THAT WAS AMAZINGGG
I genuinely enjoyed this omg
Totally unexpected but absolutely enjoyable
Maybe a little in love with hipster trash Shaggy
Fred is adorably in love with Daphne but she's so focused on her career she doesn't care
Velma is a badass scientist who wants to save humanity from itself but destroys it instead
Scooby is a failure at being a military killing machine because he's too much of a marshmallow
AND SCRAPPY IS AN EVIL LITTLE SHIT

I enjoyed reading this, though it felt a little weird with the change in story line (as far as how the gang met and everything) from the cartoon series. Also, I thought that some of the relationships between characters were odd - Fred and Daphne, Velma and Daphne... the interactions were just odd sometimes. But overall an enjoyable reading experience.

It's hard to read, but Velma says, "Please! This isn't a comic book!" To which, Shaggy responds, "It's sure startin' to feel like one."

I giggled at that. So meta. ?

Loved the art work, but I am not sure about the story telling. Especially the bickering between Daphne and Velma was irritating.

I loved Scooby Doo growing up and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked the modern update. The story was well written, characters had a modern spin and the artwork was superb! They are the same gang we all loved riding along with in the Mystery Machine. And wait until you see that...!

Another Hoopla find. I am starting this later tonight.

Shaggy is not dumb. He's actually very smart. He's just such a #spacecadet. #characters2017

Today is about #deadlypassion. I choose Velma from the new version of Scooby Doo. The Apocalypse is Velma's fault. Her passion for science and being smarter than everyone else has started a deadly plague. I loved this first book and can't wait for more. #characters2017 #characters17

Laundry night and comic night, with a healthy lineup of noir, antiheroes, and young people shenanigans. Boom pow. 💥💥💥

Okay, this was great. I grew up watching Scooby and the gang, and this comic shows them in a completely new light. Daphne annoyed me at times, but I have hopes that it won't be like that throughout the entire series. Overall, I loved it. I got this copy from my local library. I'm gonna have to get my own, and probably volume 2.. 🙈😁

Scooby and the gang like I've never seen them before!

This graphic novel gives us a new origin story, and the group comes together because of a zombie/vampire apocalypse. One caused by Velma and her research. Daphne and Fred are a TV news crew, Shaggy is a dog trainer, and Scooby-doo is one of the first smart dogs. This is a version of Scooby that this adult wants to keep reading. It‘s dark, adventurous, yet still contains the fun that made me fall in love as a kid. Plus the graphics are amazing.
