Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m back with Casey for one night only! He napped like a champ while I finished DIE. It hit me hard, y‘all. I cried, and I nodded, and I‘m gonna spend a good, long while thinking about how often Kieron Gillen‘s projects deal with personal image construction and how that plays out here in his collaboration with Stephanie Hans. #gaymay

Die uses the imagery and language of RPGs to explore mental health issues. The story was pretty gripping, but the ultimate payoff was a bit of a letdown.

This nominee for the 2022 Hugo Best Graphic Story award is the 4th and final volume of the Die series. The story, which plays with RPG concepts, is not easy to follow. However, this final volume explains a number of things that had me mystified in the earlier books and provides a satisfactory conclusion.
