Creepshow | Stephen King

so-so

This short comic is Stephen King‘s homage to the pulp horror comics of the 1950s with all their goofy gory gruesomeness. Our guide, the Creep, takes us through five stories of terrible people and their horrible demises.

There were a couple of panels that did make me giggle, but overall the book is pretty meh. The first and last stories are the strongest.

If by some chance you are super into those old horror comics, you‘ll probably like this.

The Ancient Magus' Bride Vol. 13 | Kore Yamazaki

so-so

This volume feels like a lot of filler to lead into a new arc, having to do with the Webster siblings.

Not bad setup considering that the last few volumes of Chise being at the college was leading up to this as well as all the new characters but it's starting to feel as a bit distracting from Chise and Elias' and their initial story which honestly I can't remember now.

Hopefully this all ties back in somehow to Chise.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4.5/5)

It was interesting to see a chapter from Damian‘s point of view, and it was sweet and heartwarming at the same time. I still can‘t stand Yuri but I‘m intrigued to see how the ship plot-line unfolds in the next volume!

Ancient Magus' Bride Vol. 12 | Kore Yamazaki

so-so

I liked the interaction between Chise and Alice since they got to the college and to see a known face again was a good thing considering that there are so many new characters and not all of them are properly introduced so trying to figure out who's who is becoming a mission but to see Alice again and have her confide in Chise about something as personal as her history shows how much Alice has come to rely and trust in her.

Now Let Me Fly: A Portrait of Eugene Bullard | Ronald Wimberly

pick

This graphic nonfiction about a man I never knew before reading this was terrific. Eugene Bullard was the first African-American combat pilot, and this is his story.

The artwork is gorgeous, and the story is informative and heartfelt.

Highly recommend, even if graphic novels aren't your usual read.
