LOVE the queer women representation, but it always feels a bit icky when the creators of the series are all men.

I really like the newer characters and what they add to the story. I’m so glad I have the next volume already because it seems like a bunch of things are about to happen!

Something is Killing the Children is a 5-Star series all around, even if this volume isn't my favourite (story-wise its excellent, just not as expressive in the paneling since its more conversation than action). 

Volume 6 does not disappoint and I can't wait for Volume 7!

Good but not much happened in this issue. Just exactly what I thought would happen next. It went by really quickly and seemed shorter than any of the other ones. 
I definitely liked the previous setting and story arc better than this one.
