Trying to get back on course here. Mostly bulk reading to clean up the comic area. I did add in three new ones just to get things started.

Fans of Terry Moore will most likely enjoy Parker Girls but I was hoping for some sort of style change this time. The characters are all reminiscent of his previous titles and the tone is fairly identical as well. Still worth the read but I’m hoping for a little more change in the next few.

Eve: Children of the Moon is a follow-up to EVE, the climate crisis story from May of 2021. The original arc is continued here as the girls have begun rebuilding plant life, and even civilization, as they keep in touch with the other settlements from the first story. Well, except one… I realize many of you did not read the first trade, but if you are in your public library, give this a go, you might enjoy it.

Briar is an interesting take on the the Sleeping Beauty story. I am not going to pretend it didn’t have a little Shrek feel to it but the story is interesting enough to continue. Dark fairy tales are always a good draw and this one has the right approach. All of the details about the main character, limbs weakened from being asleep for so long, no knowledge of the cultural shifts she’s missed, and her complete irrelevance to others, are put together well.  This could end up a good companion for I Hate Fairyland if it continues the way it is.
