3.5/5 stars. I think I just wanted it to be a little more witty. It was still fun though.

lots of fun, cool aesthetic, good characters.
When I picked this up, I thought it was the first in the series -- it has a #1 on the side and there wasn't an indication of that there's a particular previous issue you're supposed to read -- but I felt out of depth the whole time, like I was thrown into the middle of a story I was already supposed to have context for. I wanted to get to know Gwen and her world, but it felt too spread out between various other not-Gwen characters who it seemed like I was supposed to already know more about than I did. I guess maybe I'll look up what I was supposed to read before this volume.

The art style kept switching around and I felt very disconnected. I felt confused in many places and I'm not sure where the backstory was. However, I like the idea and the characters and I'll give the next volume a shot.

Meh. Honestly the writing is sub par and the art is only so so. Gwen looks busted af all the time and I know she’s a hero but the art for her is whack. Also I hate when the art changes so much it just looks sloppy.
