Wasted all my time
Waiting for the main event
Turns out there was none

UGH! This was written in 2020, so maybe when we were all home doing nothing, this was RIVETING. I am so disappointed. I may give the author another shot, because some of his other comics look interesting, but then again, so did this one 🙃 But I promise if they aren't going anywhere after the first volume, I will DNF faster than green grass through a goose.

GondorGirl I've never heard the phrase "faster than green grass through a goose" and your post sent me down an internet rabbit hole about its origins. I'm sorry the book was a fail, but thanks for teaching me something new! 7h

Things in the Basement | Ben Hatke

Just in time for Halloween…Ben Hatke‘s latest graphic gem is full of spooky adventures where young Milo learns to face his fears and help others. Short on words but full of art this book is highly recommended for anyone who‘s ever been afraid of what might be lurking in the basement! The artistic changing jewel tones are also a unique touch.

Important messaging around making your own choices, living your own life, but despite the wholesome and inclusive vibe, the adorable magical digital assistants, the fun tidbits of magic and lovely colour palette, this felt too much like a flashback to the anxiety of my 20s to feel like a good time. Maybe those still in their 20s will find it more comforting.

GondorGirl I read this one when it was on Web Toons and loved it. The art style is so cozy and charming, and the story is touching. I'd really like to know where the main characters end up in five years... 7h
