so-soFive kids band together to help someone, but have to fight against prejudice and an evil lunch lady every step of the way. I liked the story, but wished for more resolution for each of the kids. Recommended to me by a kiddo in my Bookworms book club for our next group read.
pickAdorable! Loved the character growth as Ben figured out a little more about what he wants to do with his life. The food descriptions made me hungry and Ben & Liam‘s adorkable connection made me giggle.
so-soThe story was confusing and I just couldn't get into it. The art, however, was great.

pick25/100 While I still enjoy the characters and the world building, this is my least favorite volume for one reason: The Artwork. I really liked Roc Upchurch's more realistic art in Volumes 1 & 2, the art by Owen Gieni was much more cartoony, especially the facial expressions. It's still a pick, but on the low end, hopefully things will improve in the next volume. 3.25/5 #Read2025 #SeriesLove2025
I don't read much in the graphic novel format but have had this on my TBR shelves for a while.
Graphic is the prompt for #tbrTarot this month so finally getting to it. The artwork is amazing.
What if a biological terror agent wiped out most of humanity, and our domesticated animals were left in charge? How would our dogs and cats set about ruling and rebuilding the world?

pickI loved the series so I thought I‘d check out the source material! I enjoyed it and would read more issues.

pickVolume 1&2 of the graphic novel adaptation of The Stand.
I'm actually impressed at how well the story is paced so far. For example, they don't waste a lot of pages on Nick's time as deputy, but they leave space for scenes like Lloyd's prison time and the Lincoln Tunnel to breathe. The artist is the same that recently underwhelmed me with heavy lines and thick shadows in The Bat-Man First Knight, and he's still not my favorite, but it happens.
pickFucking SPECTACULAR! Had no idea I would end up loving this as much as I did.
Gorgeous art (tragically Dan Mora's art only features in variant covers, but happily the regular artists for the issues are also amazingly talented) that effortlessly brings you into the place and time of this particular alternate medieval-ish fantasy world. 1/?
