Ghüs, Friendo, Lying Cat, Sweet Boy, Hazel, and Sophie. Must protect them at all costs.

Loving the character interactions and found family aspects.

The sexual content and crude dialogue can be a little much at times.
I’m over seeing The Will having sexual flashbacks with The Stalk. Unless, she isn’t actually dead. But we get it, they hooked up a lot and he has mixed feelings.
 

Robot King reveal made me laugh.
his head is a giant flat screen TV and it was playing Niagara Falls footage. A full page spread too.

I'll be honest, I was a little nervous about the introduction of another storyline. I know that from a genre perspective, comics and graphic novels are supposed to be a great medium for having parallel storylines that intersect only at the author's desire - that it can all be connected or not at all. Still, it seemed a bit risky given that while we had definitely come to a stopping point in other storylines, we had not actually come to their conclusion. But the twist and integration into the overarching plot worked very well - I'm intrigued to see what happens when our heroes arrive at this destination. Well, maybe heroes is a stretch, and they still have to find their destination, if they actually can, but you get what I mean.

This volume picks up after a little time skip, and I really like that choice as the progression felt natural. It was very fun to see Hazel a little bit older, speaking and walking around as a toddler now and interacting with the world around her more. I also loved how the conflicts started with general married spouse arguments, tension rising, until the stakes suddenly spiked again by the end of the volume with a big cliffhanger ending. We are essentially following 3 different groups of characters and their storylines, but seeing how they are tied together and how they inevitably clash is the thrilling and juicy part. I have come to love almost all of the diverse cast of characters and am just speeding through these comics because I can't wait for more.

I gave this a lower rating just because the couple isn’t getting along and I didn’t like some of the action of the characters. Other than that it’s still enjoyable and I like the ending.
