Ohh, that certainly went places. I think I'd hoped for a happier ending, but... no, this makes sense.

This was better than the first volume. Two of the crew go on a mission to find a missing crew member and what they find is beyond crazy.

The art and design are fantastic, but the narration and dialogue (British writer emulating American speech - narration in passive tense) are poorly rendered. I love this series, and really liked that Anderson gets an entire story arc to herself. The story is simplistic, but the emotion and action are superb.

Years after the heroes of the Justice League retire, a new generation of powered people quarrel and fight each other, making life for civilians dangerous. This book is the antithesis of the film MAN OF STEEL. It answers the question ‘Why do we need Superman?‘ We need him to be the role model for the concept of ‘superhero‘. Otherwise, we live amongst fascist Gods ruling over us mortal peons. His most valuable power is always doing what‘s right.

This does feel a bit middle-booky, all lead-up to a confrontation which won't happen in this volume. Still, it gives a bit more development to the characters and the background of how stuff works, and I still love the art/character designs. Curious how the series turns out.

Also, a bingo for #BookSpinBingo this early? I'm clearly not myself!

Woman World | Aminder Dhaliwal

In a post-apocalyptic world in which men have died out, a group of women and girls navigate their romantic relationships while puzzling out the remnants of previous society. It's pretty funny and often sweet, though not as inclusive as I'd like. (The author does make an effort, but it's pretty cis-centric.)

Faranae I'm always leary of these “all the men are gone“ books because most of them have been pretty transphobic. Possibly the concept itself is too rooted in 1st and 2nd wave feminist thought to ever overcome that... 2d
willaful @Faranae yeah I think so. Having slept on it, I think it might be slightly worse than half-assed. 2d
